@@jerseygirl10 I think I am moreso worried about the surgery in general. However, I have also heard and saw horror stories about cooper and having a hospital stay there. I have also never personally had a positive experience while at the main hospital.

Ashlie ~ I have had four abdominal surgeries, three of which were at cooper.

They are by far, on this side of the river, the best!!

Kenney and underwood are where the horror stories are

I stay far away from kenedy and even further from underwood (I had a family member die there from infection caused by them). I only worry because the stories I heard were from actual employees its insane but I agree for the most part that cooper is the best in this area. I am just worried and it doesn't help that I have anxiety disorders. I mean one of the stories I heard was that there were worms in the ice machine on at least one of the floors and it was know about for a couple weeks before being remedied. I have personally seen techs and nurses who surely did not want to do their jobs when other family members had surgery.
