I delivered my son here a few months ago and was very impressed with the labor and delivery department. The entire department is self-enclosed, so unlike other banner hospitals, you must be buzzed in by a staff member. This gave me a sense of security during my stay there. They have a Japanese soaking tub, which unfortunately because my water broke prior to labor I was unable to use, but it sounded amazing. They have room service for the mothers and have a daily cookie service for anyone who happens to be in your room when they come by. They also have a nice courtyard for you to spend time in before and after your delivery. It was so nice to have somewhere to go outside after being cooped up in a room for a long time.
The staff was so caring. I ended up needing a c-section and I was very scared and nervous about it, especially because my husband couldn't be in with me during the spinal. One of the nurses held me close and let me cry on her shoulder as I was getting the spinal and let me know everything was going to be ok. They made me feel so much better and didn't make me feel stupid for crying. They were very professional during the C-section and the recovery nurse was great with helping my husband tend to my son while the anesthesia was wearing off.
My only complaint is that no one told us that the room service and food was apart of our overall bill until the second day we were there. I would have ordered more food and not been quite so stingy had I known that. It was a great experience though and I plan on delivering any other children I may have in the future here.
