Great nurses! My hospitalist was wonderful. I wish the docs communicated more with one another

I went to St Mary’s Hospital for a scheduled appointment for heart catheterization with angiography, thinking, at worse, they might place a couple of stents and let me go home in a couple of hours. Lo and behold, Dr Whitkamp found several arteries (multivessel) blocked 70-90 percent. When he showed the pictures to surgeon, Dr Fiser, they decided they have to perform quadruple bypass surgery asap; my condition couldn’t wait the normal two weeks’ scheduling. All this time, I was asymptomatic and wasn’t aware that I was a walking time bomb. I was completely sedated when the surgery was performed. Waking up was a little scary. They told me the surgery was complete and I had all these breathing tubes sticking out of my mouth while I was being wheeled over to ICU. I didn’t have control over my breathing, and I couldn’t tell anyone that “I can’t breathe!” The ytubes in my mouth made talking impossible. The panic had set in. In retrospect, I was breathing through the tubes. Someone then told me to relax and let the tubes do the breathing, I did, and the rhythm fell into place. At the ICU I was placed in a room with curtains. I don’t recall exact sequence of events but the nurses did everything to make me feel comfortable. They would come in at scheduled times to check my vitals, administer medications as needed, as well as attend to my comfort, such as adjusting the head incline at the bed, placing pillows where I wanted them, cleaning me up with the disinfectant wipes, etc. They were all kind and nice. I count my blessings to be admitted to the ICU on the weekend. The weekend day nurse, Gabby and the night nurse, I believe her name was Charlene (pardon my memory), were both personable and performed their duties in professional yet friendly manner. This is not to take anything away from the rest of the nurses who’d fill in or come in to help, as needed. Sierra, who took care of me on my last day at ICU and who wheeled me to cardiac step down unit, was another friendly yet professionally diligent nurse. At the step down unit, I was blessed to be attended by Grace, the night nurse, and Jillian, the day nurse. They both took good care of me and I shall remain obliged. The other part of the recovery team, ie physical therapy, occupational therapy, etc. all did a great job in preparing me to leave the hospital. Bon Secour has a wonderful at home care patient service. So far, within a week, I have had three nurses’ visits, two visits from the physical therapist, and one from the occupational therapist, with more visits to follow. All in all, I’m grateful to the Lord, and to the medical staff at St Mary’s Hospital for giving me another shot at life. It was curiosity about my coronary artery calcium (CAC) score that ultimately led to the path where severe multi-vessel blockage was discovered, and the doctors, in their due diligence, decided I had to get a bypass right away. The only complain I have is, as a vegan, there wasn’t much meal option for me, and the meal they served was unpalatable. Perhaps the meal was served when I was pumped up with fluids, hence I had no appetite, but I had to put most of the meal down after taking a bite. I would advise Bon Secour that, since eating wholesome and nutritious meals is imperative towards their patients’ recovery, they should often partake in tasting the meals they serve to their patients to see if they would eat it. If not, then changes would need to be made. Several of the nurses had shared that I wasn’t the only one complaining. In conclusion, I’m impressed with the quality of care I received at St Mary’s Hospital. All the staff were professional, friendly and accommodating. Update (10-26-25): I would be completely remiss if I didn't mention Paulo, the nurse at the admissions, who also took a wonderful care of me. In preparation for my surgery, he had hooked me up to IV, frequently checked on me, and accommodated my request with gentle yet upmost care. Paulo is an exemplary of the superb nursing staff I would encounter throughout my stay St Mary's Bon Secours subsequently.

It seems that all of my more serious (heart) procedures are performed at St. Mary’s Hospital. I have found the nurses and staff to be very helpful, informative, and good natured. I trust them, literally with my life.

First rehab and treatment center I have ever been too and it is one of the best! Great councilors and medical staff that are very accommodating. Top notch housing with very nice residential aids!!! Highly recommend Pinnacle of Richmond you won't be disappointed!

Absolutely amazing experience for me. This place truly cares about your recovery, and most of the staff has been in my shoes and knew what I was going through but never judged me. Thank you too all staff, mainly Adrian, Mike, Jerome, Ms. Mary, Dontonya, Ariel, Aaron, Roy, Yoshi, Linda, Colin, Jess, Steshia, Natasha, and Patty. And the list goes on. You all helped me in my recovery so much I could never thank you enough. Only two things that I have issues with, the program isn't long enough as I wanted to stay longer. Second was Sheeba goes and tells my father who came to pick me up, that I was hot mess, and I was trouble in the program. Why would any staff go out of their way to say such a thing, when I took the program serious and did more than extra while being there. Other than that, it was the best decision I made by going there. Thank you all and I'll see you in two years.

My time spent was well worth it,If you come for recovery you will get recovery but if you come to play around then your gonna play yourself period.I had a mission.I decided to work the program and stay focused.Besides they offered a beautiful home to stay in free food and all I had to do was not use WHAT !!! .Hands down the best experience of my life better then any drug could ever offer.Thanks for giving me my life back......Angie
