Review by Orval ***** April 21, 2024

4/5

I was scheduled for surgery and I waited for almost 2 hrs before getting into the room to get it done. That is the only bad thing that happened. Everyone there, all the nursing staff was excellent very nice, cordial and easy to talk with and bent over backwards to make it a great surgical experience. If I need to I will go there again with no complaints.
