The nurse post-surgery was great. Forgot her name. I wanted ice cream after my throat procedure. She actually went to cafeteria to get it, and refused to be paid back. My nurses in the room were equally great about providing me with refreshments and comfort items after my procedure. I was give great care. And Dr. Clay Williams went the extra mile again and again. He was very understanding about the throat bolus/clog I had. He gave me a clear course of action for future treatment, while explaining what he'd done to help the problem oin the meantime.
What could have been done to improve this visit?
DO SOMETHING ABOUT CLIMATE CONTROL! The rooms are freezing, and the patient cannot adjust the setting. If I had not brought pajamas and robe from home, I'd have suffered.
