Good Samaritan Hospital

Hi everyone, I am in the very beginning stages of the this whole process. I went to my local Doctor to have the sleeve done and was told due to serve heart burn that I should do the bypass. He is sending me to Good Samaritan Hospital in Brockton Ma. When I told my friend she said she wouldn't recommend going there. But I know every department in a hospital can be different. SO my question is, has anyone gone through this hospital for WLS and how was the experience? Thank you for your replys

I am having bypass but my surgeon did tell me that if I chose the sleeve and my endoscopy showed severe reflux, bypass would be my only option. Hope that helps.

I didn't even see my first doctor for more than 5 mins. He saw that I heart burn issues, and he just said he couldn't help me. That I needed to go to a different office. I'm a little nervous because I haven't heard good reviews about other departments in the hospital.
