"Well, first two days in PCU were wonderful, the staff was knowledgeable, kind considerate and seemingly competent. I'm going to list some events.. anyone else can be their own judge. Next two days I spent on the 5th floor. IV was clearly infiltrated...the head nurse on the floor remedied this by taping the IV to my arm to the point where I still have residual tape. No Soap.. asked to take a shower and got a cup of liquid hand soap. No towels... I got paper towels to take a shower with. Head nurse on floor was talk to anyone ... anyplace on the floor thru the central station without ever moving. She was absolutely the worst I've ever experienced. She made an annoucement to me after I had my leak test that something came back negative after the test and she couldn't "remember" what it was. Eventually she showed me the results from the radiologist. As it turned out it was a "spasm" after drinking the barium. But you can't beleive what she put us thru for over an hour. I never once pressed the button for nursing assistance. But my roommate did.. the response time was horrendous. I guess I shouldn't let one person's rudeness and seemingly incompetence have such a large influence on my judgements, but that floor nurse was scarey."

"To me, this evaluation was a joke. Seemed as though he was more interested in how he was going to get paid than anything else. That took half the consultation... the other half of the counsultation was about his own weight problem. He was pleasant enough to talk to...however, this wasn't an evaluation at all.. it was just a talk with a nice older gentlemen who was overweight."

"What can I say about Dr G. He is compassionate... he's kind.. he's always in a hurry, but always takes the time to do whatever he can to make me comfortable. I have had the opportunity to meet him before I even had an appointment. He attends all his support group meetings. I also had the opportunity to help him with a powerpoint presentation. It was a pleasure to work with him. My next appointment with him is July 17, 2002. I need to lose 15 lbs. Debra his assistant works unbelieveably hard, is really on top of her game. She is truly a joy. Personally, I think that the support group meetings could be a bit more organized ... but he is getting busy beyond belief. So all things come with time. "
