TOP important and interesting reviews from patients
- I recently had out patient surgery at this surgery center and I can't express enough how nice the staff was to me. They were very knowledgeable with their jobs and I felt very comfortable trusting them and knowing that everything would be fine. The facility was very immaculate which of course is one of the top priorities anyone having surgery looks for. I will be recommending this surgical center to people I know. I feel you get the best care possible there. You won't be disappointed!
- I'm in and out of Northwest Health Porter all the time for low potassium. The staff is, for the most part, courteous and prompt. The food is real good for a gluten free diet. The supervisors frequently check up with you about staff service and the cleaning crew are there daily. I go to University of Chicago about 2x a year. While I love my specialist there, as far as hospitals go, I'd much rather be here!!
- First of all this is Mrs. V. I went there for an emergency ruptured/ perforated appendix. Dr. Taylor Coleman performed the surgery. He was an awesome & kind doctor! Came to visit me often, listening to my needs. More doctors should be like him, I thank him from the bottom of my heart for saving my life! All the nurses were Angels especially Brittney. She put herself in my shoes & treated me with such kindness! Blessings to her, the nurses & Dr. Coleman always! I'm lucky I'm here thanks to all of them, I'm blessed & my heart is full of gratitude beyond words!
