Learn MoreAaron, CRNA was fantastic. I asked for a little push of meds during the procedure and wam, it was over and I didn't even know it. Drugs are a wonderful thing. Josh (RN) and Kim (OR, RN) were also fantastic. They let me be my goofy self as they got me ready for the procedure and after during recovery. Thank you.
