Yeah, it was great. I even, as I was leaving the room, shook the doctor's hand and told him, I said, everybody I have met, my week in the hospital there, and then the doctors I've seen, nurses, everyone has been more courteous than any hospital staff I've ever seen. And the hospital is clean. And it's just, it's a great place. I mean, I will come there from [CITY] anytime I need to. And if it's like a life- threatening thing, I will get, go to [FACILITY] I, and they can get me stable and transfer me. So, that is a great hospital.

The visit was quick and I was not able to ask all my questions. I felt rushed to make a decision about if/when I would have surgery.

The only gripe or complaint that I have is where my primary care doctor doesn't already have a CT scan set up for my cancer treatment doctor and putting both of those together. And that's, there's not enough communication between my primary care and my specialist. And I've been having problems with that for years. But that's nothing on your side.

Very satisfied with the communication between UAMS staff and [OUTSIDE FACILITY] staff. It is very reassuring that they are all working together as a team and making sure that I am aware of the aspects of my surgery and what will happen afterwards. I feel confident that my surgery will be as success and my rehabilitation after the surgery should go smoothly
