Verde Valley Medical Center

Just had my colonoscopy this morning here. Once again a wonderful experience. I felt like I had great care, especially from the nursing staff. As good if not better then I have had on the east coast. We used emergency a year ago for my wife and she experienced the same care.

This is a first for me to give vvmc a good review ,.. LoL...I am as shocked as you I have a lot of issues , type one diabetic and COPD and got a infection and had to go to the emergency room and all the time in the past it's been a horrible nightmare but this visit was totally different and I noticed it from the beginning and I asked the nurse why so nice and to find out he was a travel nurse and jack was awesome they should try and keep him and start training the others bedside manner thanks jack it was a pleasure meeting you and good luck on your travels

I have to disagree unfortunately I've been here seven times in the last 2 years everybody here is amazing the doctors to the nurses to the janitors to everybody that works here absolutely awesome and I can say this because I'm a regular

Been here 13 days and couldnt be more6 impressed. The staff and crew were all vey kind, knowledgeable and professional even when i wasnt! Rooms are very clean😄 definwould retun

We had our beautiful, wonderful, perfect daughter here. We were treated with respect, our doctor had admitting privileges and the birth went extremely smoothly. Our maternity room was as close to a bedroom as it could have been, there was also a family kitchen & family waiting area, and they even allowed me to bring in a crock pot to cook dinner for my wife IN HER ROOM while she was in post partum care. That was almost right years ago. I mention it because that was one great experience, but I went there today with extreme back pain, the cause of which I knew very well, I explained what was happening to the doctor and what I needed to treat it (NOT opioids), he looked at my medical records, verified what I had said, and prescribed me exactly what I needed (steroidal anti inflammatories and gabapentin). I would be laid out in bed for the next several days if they had not prescribed what I asked for and if they had not been caring and understanding of the fact that I already have a bad back. 20 years ago I would have never recommended this hospital but today they truly have changed, after treatment they call to make sure everything went well, I know that VVMC gets a bad rap from some bad experiences in the past. They are very obviously working hard to correct those issues and I am no longer afraid to go there in any way. I actually recommend it, and will request it if I need an ambulance as opposed to Flagstaff, which I used to request. Thank you VVMC for the latest improvements, including the WiFi access. I know you're working hard to get a better reputation, and it shows. VVMC is not perfect, but no hospital is, and they've shown me recently in very real ways that they care, and they're trying to improve service. Having nurses come in for frequent updates is a huge no-brainer, and I appreciate it. I was in & out today in under 2 hours with severe back pain. Nothing life-threatening, and still, they hurried. Don't be afraid to go here. They've improved by leaps & bounds.
