Cleveland Clinic (foundation) (COE) Hospital

Cannot speak Highly enough of the hospital and baritric unit - they are the best! Worth the 7 hour one way drive to get there.

I found the level of care while in-patient (from a nursing standpoint) to be adequate. I didn't really find anyone that sincerely went "above & beyond" to provide what I would consider "excellent/world class" care. This may be due to the volume of patients per nurse, staffing constraints, etc. I'm not sure but in hearing of the Cleveland Clinic, perhaps my expectations were much higher?

I think this hospital is a very busy hospital but they are top knotch with the programs in all fields. I had a problem though, when I was taken to the recovery room I had no morphine pump. They gave me shots in recovery but when I got to my room they had only ordered me Tylenol, YIKES. They finally three hours later got a hold of the surgeon and got me hooked up to a morphine pump.

Like a city inside a city...a very big hospital! Definitely have to do a lot of walking to get where you need to be. I found it to be very clean, bright, and all of the staff to be so very pleasant and helpful.

Very good and clean hositpal

very accommodating and sensitive

Overall it was a good experience. The nurses were extremely busy on days but the night shift nurses made more time for me.

I wish I could say great things, but I can't. A lot of the staff had poor attitudes, I was ran into a wall right out of surgery, one of the orderly's complained that he had to push me up the ramp to even get me to surgery. Then the one nurse did not give me pain meds from 10 a to 7 p. She was rude to my friend that was there, and had stayed with me that day. She wouldnt even look at her or speak to her. She told me that it was my job to call for pain meds. Well, hello! I was in pain and that is why my friend was there for support. Then I ran a fever and called the after hours number. They asked me a series of questions and told me to take my pain meds. Then the next day my incision was leaking, and I called the after hours number because I was so scared and the told me not to call that number because it was not an emergency. But in our discharge papers that it was it tells us to do. At this point I wish I would have picked somewhere else to go. I am not happy at all.

Really really big hospital. i am glad they have an inclusive unit to ensure proper care of the morbidly obese client

Lot's of Hospital staff were had wls so they totally understood what you were going through, they gave personal advice and words of comfort and even held my hand, THANKS CLEVELAND CLINIC!!!
