I have never been to the FW-D Hospital before and had my first visit as an invasive procedure. I was nervous. The registration lady 2 days before made it sound like my check in process would take forever. It did not. Ebony, the phlebotomist, was one of the best I have ever had. The CATH Lab and my procedure was preformed by the most PROFESSIONAL, Caring, Kind, Thoughtful, and Informative Staff I could have asked for. I am so sorry I cannot remember everyone's name but they were all so exceptional and worked together like a well oiled machine. Delaney was my initial nurse. She was so kind and considerate and started me off with the great care I received through the entire procedure. Glen can start an IV like no ones business. Again, I apologize I cannot remember everyone's name but want the personnel in the CATH Lab to know I appreciated them and they are FABULOUS!!!
Staff for in-patient were very pleasant and helpful. A lack of communication for medical treatment and care prolonged the stay. 3rd party increased stay by 2 days, but resolved after that.
My therapist, Ms Kathy Blue, is the best licensed mental health professional when it comes to therapy. She is proficient is grief counseling as well. Only issue I have is the new policy by Bridgeway that limits therapy visits to only 12 sessions (TWELVE!!). My insurance referral covers 40 visits and Bridgeway cut off my therapy visits after 25, citing that their new policy as of June 2024 was only allowing 12 sessions. I am giving my therapist Ms Blue the 5 stars, not Bridgeway itself. As far as Bridgeway (especially cutting off my much needed grief counseling therapy sessions), I would give Bridgeway and their new policy ONE STAR!!By the way, if you do choose to see a therapist at Bridgeway, PLEASE try to get an appointment with Ms Blue. She truly has the experience and expertise, AND you will obtain the BEST therapy experience!!
