On 9/16/10 I arrived to have a discectomy and 2 level fusion in my cervical spine with Dr. C. Goodwin. The entire process from the time I arrived was quite impressive. HSS is run like a well oiled machine and you almost feel like you are checking into a hotel. The atmosphere that is also offered to your family members is quite comfortable and accommodating. The pre-op was incredible. One specific dedicated person to the IV and dressing and everything else. The anesthesiologist came in and was quite thorough and addressed the pre and post op pain meds quite well. Then Dr. Goodwin came in and then we went down to the OR. After I stayed in the PACU till 3pm the next day. Anytime I rang the bell 3 nurses came running. I have had many surgeries and stayed in many different hospitals and never experienced care like I did at HSS. I have been recommending it and bragging about it ever since. So it has been 6 months, I am fusing nicely. I feel great and all is well.
