I was up just after surgery maybe an he .GAS PAINS UPPER CHEST THEY WARNED ME !!!!Yes u will have gas pain 1-10 . 5 haven't Asked for meds yet. Florence is very clean but dated rooms like a small okla hospital. Staff is good if u need something just ask. Surgery OR GOOD EQUIPMENT I'll give it an 8. My wife say the support person will be board not much for them to do. I'm using gas x strips not helping yet. Dr. Garcia staff and staff here very present . Mote to come

I am a picky person 1-10 scale i give them an 8 . driver was great vehicle was clean , wind star van could use some rear shocks, well issue 1 try to arrive later than 3 pm so there's no wait to get ur room. There is a $100.00 deposit they just started. I knew about it.. Room wife and I agreed 7.5-8. Nice and clean king bed . Little older everyone was nice . Irene came by to do paperwork while waiting for room . Surgery was set for 2-3 pm and changed while talking to Irene . Surgery as soon as they can get me there in the morning 8-9 am.
