just now While the medical care from the staff was solid,…read morethey lost three stars for what had occurred during my procedure. I was having very intricate, delicate surgery on my eye, to repair a macular hole, and additional laser repaid my retina. I don't mind saying that I was very stressed. I was given an "eye block"; I was knocked out, the "block" was administered to my optic nerve, then I was brought out of the anesthesia. This removed all pain, and kept me awake for the surgery. While the surgery was being performed, the surgical staff engaged in a conversation about Utah's new Covid-19 Mask Mandate from the Governor. Now, I am 63 years old, and part of the "pre-existing conditions group", making me more susceptible to the virus, more susceptible to illness and/or death. I was stunned to hear members of the surgical team saying that they were against the mandate, and thought that the hype was overblown! The surgeon, whom I hold blameless, as these were not his employees, said to the staff "I can't believe that you guys feel this way, after everything that's happened..." That's when I chimed in, saying "This is ridiculous! Wearing a mask hurts no one! And, regardless of your political beliefs, I would think that everyone would want to wear one, just to decrease the chance of spreading! This is just like the motorcycle helmet law argument of the 1970's, where riders would say "It's my life, you can't tell me what to do! Only in THIS case, your actions can permanently change the lives of many others!" You could have heard a pin drop. The conversation was over. My anxiety went through the roof, along with my blood pressure. Here was a group of "medical professionals" announcing to the world that they didn't believe what their peers, EXPERTS in the field, were saying, and gambling with MY LIFE, in the process! This was irresponsible, arrogant, upsetting and callous! They have no right to take their patients' lives in their hands, while doctors and nurses the world over are trying to keep their heads above water! How dare they??? Regardless of one's political beliefs, this was no place to have this conversation. And, in my opinion, these detractors of the mandate do not belong in an operating room, PERIOD! So, as I said, it appeared that they administered proper medical care, from a technical standpoint, but failed miserably with their bedside manner! Shameful!

I had major surgery completed here back in 2021 and their prices were very competitive and I saved…read moreI ton of money having my procedures done here. That sort was awesome. They intake process was great, all the nurses were so nice but after my surgery I went into the recovery area to come wake up from being under and I was taking longer then expected. I was completely out of it, and the nurse kept waking me up and getting my dressed which would be ok besides I was falling over and collapsing. She did not seem concerned and rushed me out up my car where I passed out multiple times and my mom who is a very petite lady had to catch me and steady me before I hit the ground. Luckily I was able to get in the car without any serious fall but looking back I am so annoyed that the nurse was more worried about getting me out of the center quickly then making sure I could safely get into my vehicle. It's not like I was just being lazy I straight up could not help it. If you are planning on getting surgery done here, I would recommend that you have someone there to advocate for you at pick up time to make sure that it is safe for you to leave.
