I was vacationing in San Diego and started to hemmorhage from a recent hysterectomy after some sutures came undone. The staff was amazing and my husband and I counted about 24 staff members (doctors and nurses) who attended to me and realized the issue was severe. This was a significant departure from the care (or lack thereof) we are accustomed to in Las Vegas. I was in and out (with anesthesia & surgery) within 6 hours. There were approximately 4 anesthesiologists who listened to my concerns since I have had severe reactions in the past. I was awake immediately and not groggy or nauseous and able to go back to the Navy Lodge to sleep in a regular bed. My bleeding has subsided and they released me with comprehensive instructions. Couldn't be more pleased about the quality of care at this facility.
