SCOR Sucks Post-Op 5 Days

[LB927 0]

I had my surgery and everything went okay. Dr. B. was great. My only complaint is the staff at SCOR. I felt like I was part of an assembly line and they were pushing me to leave. I was in horrible pain and asked for some more meds and you would think I asked them to give the entire pharmacy. The nurse was not nice at all and kept saying it does not hurt get up and the pain will go away. She kept referring to her surgery and that she did not have any pain when she was banded. Does she not realize that people have diff pain thresholds? She would not speak to me and instead she and the anesthesiologist spoke only to my husband - how rude, even though I was coherent and speaking to them asking questions. I wish I had the nurse who was with the bed next door. That nurse was nice to that person and had good bedside manor. My experience was not good and in hindsight I wish I would have had my surgery at a different facility. Did anyone have the same experience at SCOR?

I am now on the two week post-op liquid and doing okay. I have not had any major gas pain and the incision pain has diminished somewhat. I hurt a little when I inhale all the way and if I cough. I am ready to begin the mushy food stage and hope that when I go in for my post-op visit everything will be good.

Take care,

Seems like you should report this nurse and your experience to someone there and let them know that if you'd had a choice, you'd have gone somewhere else as opposed to the nursing care you recieved. This may be of importance to them and may help others who come after you avoid the same treatment. Maybe they need to inservice their staff on proper care and treatment of their patients. Glad you're doing okay otherwise! Welcome!

I am with leatha. I had my surgery at SCOR but they were wonderful. I was very pleased with the service I recieved. I would definatly let them know of any problems. If they don't know then no one can correct it.
