I was delivered by ambulance to the ER (Global Medical) due to a fall. Dr. Nastanski sewed my forehead together; he'd make a fine tailor. Now two weeks post surgery and upon reflection, I would like to thank Dr. Nastanski for putting me back together! Unfortunately, once leaving the ER and placed in a 4th floor room (411) my care took a downward turn. Global Medical Center is a disaster. It's dirty, over crowded, noisy and no place for a sick person. Besides the deplorable conditions, no hospital personnel discussed my medical concerns with me...though numerous hospital personnel were in and out of my room. Dr. Nastanski did visit me bedside (when I requested that "my" doctor speak with me) but he was rushed and my concerns were never fully addressed. Dr. Nastanski, I implore you to investigate the conditions your patients are subjected too once they leave your direct care.

An amazing surgeon with a great experience in what he does. He holds great compassion and kindness for all his patients and it gave me a lot of trust and calmness during my surgery.

I cannot say enough good things about this surgeon, I would trust any of my family members in his hands. He is also gracious, professional, on time and with a warm and kind bedside manner. He is truly gifted and will save many lives as well as easing the stress of surgery on patients and their families.
