Southern Inyo Hospital THE BEST !!
After a 2021 mis-diagnosis and two botched surgeries at another hospital , a 68 pound weight-loss, terrible care up there in Reno, except for one really nice nurse..
When I was shipped back to Southern Inyo Hospital is when my recovery began,
Great care and physical therapy ,gaining much needed weight back.
A great nursing staff day and night, good and caring doctors and ER staff, and good meals served, in no time ( about 7 weeks at SIH as a patient ), I was back on my feet, gaining weight and able to go home,and then still getting out-patient wound care from them for another 3 months or so, and given a good diet to follow..
Ever thankfull for all they did, each and everyone working there…ever indebted…..
Why in the world would Wayne’s comment get a thumbs down? Wayne, although I don’t know you, I am very happy you found the care you needed.
Thank You, Dean…was a perforated appendix rupture,with 3 different major infections and two different IV’s 24/7 for close to 2 months .
At my age, still not 100 % two years later,but after having more than one doctor telling me only a 60 % chance of survival with all the weight-loss and complications,or ever going back home again,thankful for the about 70 % back to normal I’ve got to be now, and making it back home again….
