On July 13th (Sunday morning) at 5:30 a.m., I arrived at the Sharp Memorial Emergency Department due to abdominal pain. From the moment I was admitted, the nurse and ER doctor were incredibly kind and attentive. I suspected appendicitis, and the ER physician quickly confirmed the diagnosis with a CT scan.By 10 a.m., I was admitted to 5 North, where I was welcomed into a comfortable private room. The floor nurse assigned to me was not only warm and compassionate but also impressively professional and skilled. My surgery was scheduled for 1:30 p.m. that same day, and at 1 p.m., I was taken to pre-op. I had the opportunity to meet the team (anesthesiologist, surgeon and OR nurses) who explained the role they would play in the surgery. Although I was understandably nervous, their experience, kindness, and confidence in their chosen profession helped put me at ease.The surgery went smoothly, and the post-op nurse provided excellent care, making me feel safe and supported throughout recovery. Once I returned to my room, the floor nurse continued to show genuine compassion and attentiveness. I was grateful to be discharged by 6:30 p.m. that evening, as I was healing well and eager to recover at home.Given the urgency of the situation, I couldn't be more impressed with the care I received at Sharp Memorial Hospital. From diagnosis to surgery to post-operative care, everything was handled with remarkable efficiency and professionalism. It truly felt like everything aligned perfectly thanks to the exceptional team.The following day, I received follow-up calls from Sharp HealthCare to help coordinate my Primary Care and Post-Op appointments, which was greatly appreciated. Thank you all for the outstanding care and support-you made a difficult experience much easier to navigate.
