5/5 Abigail R. 1 year ago on Google
I
went
in
with
a
myriad
of
issues
and
no
idea
what
to
expect.
I
haven't
quite
aged
out
yet
as
a
young
adult
and
have
been
with
Dr.
Roberts
for
a
few
years
now
to
treat
hydrocephalus,
so
I
figured
if
anyone
knew
what
to
do
it'd
be
him.
He
was
extremely
attentive,
patient,
and
meticulous
in
how
he
approached
my
case.
With
his
guidance,
we
solved
a
2-month
long
mystery
and
found
that
I
had
an
infected
VP
shunt.
We
came
up
with
a
plan
A,
B,
and
C
so
that
I
felt
reassured
as
an
anxious
patient.
I
always
feel
confident
in
his
care
and
I
feel
reassured
that
I'm
in
good
hands
every
time
I
see
him.
This
is
so
important
to
me
as
someone
with
a
less
common
medical
condition.
He
is
so
knowledgeable,
experienced,
and
confident
in
his
capabilities.
He
was
working
with
resident
Dr
Crabill
(i
may
not
have
spelled
that
right)
who
also
made
sure
that
he
did
a
fantastic
job
of
communicating
with
me
and
reaching
out
to
me
during
my
trip
here.
Having
two
brains
work
on
my
case
is
also
always
an
extra
layer
of
reassurance
to
me.
Dr.
Anderson,
my
ID
doctor
was
also
really
awesome
when
it
came
down
to
treating
this
infection!
She
was
so
reassuring
and
answered
all
of
my
questions
about
the
infection
and
the
treatment.
I
also
really
appreciated
her
lovely
personality.
It
was
comfortable
talking
to
her
even
though
it
was
my
first
time
meeting
her.
She
was
so
sweet
and
caring!
I
feel
confident
in
my
treatment
plans
with
these
doctors
here.
I
do
wanna
talk
about
these
nurses
too.
They
were
nothing
short
of
amazing!
Beautiful
inside
and
out,
too.
The
entire
time
I
was
in
the
PICU,
each
nurse
met
me
with
empathy,
kindness,
attentiveness.
They
were
so
friendly
and
nurturing
and
made
me
as
comfortable
as
possible
during
a
really
painful
stay!
So
shout
out
to
ALL
these
PICU
nurses
and
then
some.
I
don't
think
I
got
all
of
their
names,
and
there's
a
lot
because
I
was
in
there
for
a
minute!
At
any
rate:
thank
you
Amy,
Marlee,
Kionne,
Nicole,
Veronica,
Taylor,
Molly,
Terika
in
the
PICU!
Amy,
Marlee,
and
Kionne
in
particular
made
the
most
of
my
stay
and
I
am
so
grateful
I
got
to
meet
these
beautiful
souls!
We
laughed
a
lot,
talked
a
lot,
and
I
will
never
forget
how
much
that
means
to
me.
When
I
was
finally
moved
to
a
private
room,
my
nurses
there
were
Dalton,
Somalia,
and
Sue,
and
I
had
the
same
kind
of
warmth
from
these
three
too!
So
thank
you
guys
as
well.
There
were
so
many
other
names
and
faces
there,
I
wish
I
could've
had
them
all
written
down.
Like
the
staff
that
helped
me
with
imaging.
The
staff
that
helped
with
my
PICC
line.
The
housekeepers
and
the
food
workers.
Down
to
the
people
that
just
helped
us
navigate
the
hospital
when
we
weren't
sure
where
to
go.
I
saw,
recognized,
and
thanked
them
all
when
I
could.
Everyone
at
that
hospital
deserves
appreciation
and
recognition
for
everything
that
they
do.
Thank
you
guys.
I
know
that
your
jobs
aren't
easy,
but
I
hope
that
they
are
rewarding.
My
ONLY
complaint
about
the
entire
stay
is
the
structural
design
of
the
hospital
sometimes
was
really
inconvenient
for
someone
recovering
from
surgery.
The
floor
made
rolling
my
EVD
and
IV
poles
into
the
bathroom
in
the
PICU
very
annoying
(but
luckily
I
had
amazing
nurses
that
were
willing
to
help
or
do
it
for
me!!)
I
also
thought
it
was
strange
that
bathrooms
were
shared
in
the
PICU
but
maybe
that's
normal
in
hospitals?
If
it
is,
it
shouldn't
be.
There
were
times
where
my
neighbor
would
leave
my
door
locked
and
not
be
in
there,
or
leave
pee
on
the
toilet
seat!
I'm
sure
they
weren't
thrilled
about
my
toothbrush
being
there
on
the
counter
either.
And
that's
just
a
health
risk
in
my
opinion
that
should
really
be
avoided
especially
in
a
place
as
delicate
as
an
ICU.
In
the
private
room
as
well,
having
the
sink
outside
of
the
bathroom
was
really
odd
to
me
as
well.
But
despite
this
really
petty
complaint,
I
had
nurses
that
were
right
by
my
side
to
help
me
make
the
best
of
that
whole
situation.
