| - I wish I could give 10 stars!
A couple weeks ago after taking my son to the ER for headaches at another hospital, we were transferred to the pediatric ICU at St Joe's when we discovered he needed surgery to remove a large tumor from his brain. It was the start of a very very long stint in the hospital full of fear, and worry, but minimized pain and lots of help and recovery.
I can't overstate how amazing the staff are at St Joe's PICU. Our neurosurgeon, Dr Nakaji was just incredible- knowledgeable, down to earth, attentive, honest but reassuring and very, very talented. His residents and all the nurses were also amazing- they were so kind and helpful. Not once did I feel that they were "desensitized" to our situation, and they were very compassionate while anticipating our emotional needs and physical needs (we went in there unprepared for a long stay, they brought us toiletries, snacks, laundry detergent and more).
By all accounts, my son seems to be healthy now and I think we had the best possible circumstances of a bad situation thanks to St Joe's. I highly, highly recommend them!
