I had ocular plastic surgery at the Same Day Surgery Center in Rapid City, SD and had Joseph Carda as my anesthesiologist. Having been VERY sick after my last surgery there, I was ambivilent about using them again. This time, they gave me meds to counteract any nausea before surgery, and I explained to Joseph that I had a negative experience with the last anesthesia I was given there. Mind you, I do not have this experience in hospitals with anesthesia. Well, this time, I had a lot of trouble even coming out of the anesthesia. They gave me narcan to take down the effects of morphine given, but it did no good. My oxygen levels were very low, and they wanted me to stay there for a couple of days, but we did have an O2 concentrator at home and a pulse oximeter to check my oxygen levels. I wanted OUT of that place. I hurled my food after eating when I got home and was sick to my stomach for days. It took 2 full days before my oxygen levels were normal, so I didn't feel comfortable taking my pain meds, and I desperately needed them. I was miserable and will not go anywhere that uses West River anesthesiology. I had them at Same Day Surgery when having a hysterectomy and got very ill after surgery. They kept me overnight and I was restless and broke out in bumps all over my stomach and back. I was on oxygen throughout the night. I am absolutely terrified to ever use any of their anesthesiologists again after 2 very negative experiences. I don't trust them. read more
