Love the staff and environment. Awesome experience when getting my injection.
Sandy, Megan, Brittany, Beca, Kelli, Dr. Vantassel were my surgical team and treated me very well. If I missed someone's name, they were just as good. Dr. Guirguis was very good. I highly recommend this surgical center
Fantastic, had a total hip replacement, couldn't expect anything more - I was well prepared by the surgical team, the procedure was quick and professional. The follow-up has been excellent, Thank you
World Sight Day is Oct. 12, and it emphasizes protecting your eyesight. Reducing hazards and getting annual eye exams can protect your vision and decrease the risk of falls, fractures and other injuries.
Since hemorrhoids and colon cancer may have similar symptoms, it’s important to know the facts about each condition and to get an accurate diagnosis from a physician.
Leading health agencies recommend people eat a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains for their health.
I went here to see Dr Guirgues for cervical surgery and he was great and his staff was great and the surgery was done at the hospital and all the nurses there were all very nice. But from the beginning of the process the people working at the front desk registration at the center for surgery were the most unprofessional, condescending and just downright rude bunch I have ever had to deal with. It is very obvious that they hate their jobs and love talking down to older folks and treating them like little children. I will never go to this place again as it is the worst treatment I have ever received from a medical establishment.
