I've always hated going to the hospital because it is typically a miserable experience. Bayshore and its staff have completely reversed my thinking about hospitals. The care I received at Bayshore was incredible. The first major difference I noticed between this and other hospitals was that every member of the staff I encountered seemed genuinely interested in my care and well-being. Everyone was friendly when they introduced themselves, and answered all my questions. The doctors and nurses were all very clear about my condition and necessary treatment, and explained things in a way that was easy to understand. I was also kept updated every step of the way, which was comforting. Any and all of my needs or wants were met pretty quickly. As far as a staff goes, the people I encountered in the 2-West wing of Bayshore were phenomenal.

One of the main issues I have had with hospitals is the food. This was definitely not the case at Bayshore. I have a lot of dietary restrictions, but it was never an issue because the first morning of my stay I was visited by a nutrition specialist who set me up with a custom diet. The food was actually pretty good, and they have a wide array of options to choose from. Every member of the nutrition staff I encountered were super accommodating and friendly, as well.

Call it 5 star, A+, 10/10, or whatever you want. My experience at Bayshore Medical Center was first class. I have to extend my gratitude to Kit, Alice, Jamie, Mary in the ER, Jackie, Donte (sp? sorry), Iggy, Reggie, and everyone else's names who are escaping me for their compassion and excellent care while I was there. The whole team in 2 West is really incredible. I'd also like to thank Mark Morrison for going out of his way to get me a coffee. It really hit the spot. Thank you all so much for everything. I will never hesitate to visit Bayshore Medical Center ever again.
