I lost all respect for TVH when we first moved here 6 yrs. ago I just had a 5 way heart bypass in Ohio where I lived. It was only 6 weeks afterward that I had an issue in my mouth due to breathing tubes during my heart surgery. I was told never be around people that had any kind of viruses. When I went to the waiting room I sat in there for 5 1/2 hrs. with 3 people having puke buckets for severe cases of the flu. I told the them about it & they said they couldn't do anything about it. (that was their exact words) Then when I did see someone it was a PA & he said I had a cold sore, wrong. We got into see the CEO of the hospital & told her the lot longer story, my $4,000+ dollar bill was forgiven. So Tampa can improve them all they want but if want good health care go somewhere else. Besides TVH can't do anything to your heart, all they can do is stabilize you & send you to another hospital, if you can make it!
