Ruger you know our experience at Vandy.. IMO, the Surgeons there are top notch! Some GREAT nurses too but, a lot of kids fresh out of school that don't have a clue \:\)

We had as many as 5 or 6 events where had Kim and I not requested that Matthew receive 0 meds without our presence and bing awake to review, he'd have been given too much in a day or missed crucial anti-seizure meds in a day.. In the meantime ALL the med info was in the computer... Kids!

Of course they do have the same issues with staph and MRSA in their OR's that everyone else deals with.. We found that out the hard way!

All in all, it's where we'll go if we have any big events at our house... The surgeons and Dr's are normally pulled in from the likes of John Hopkins and other well known magnum-hospitals and have a lot of proven capabilities before they ever get to Vandy.

I talked to my neice and she says they are the best in this area. To go to some place better you would have to go to UCLA or John Hoppins or a place like them.

they have done things for John William`s back and his scoliosis that have blown my mind,,things can go wrong anywhere,but I feel you have better chances at Vandy than anywhere in the south east.

Don't know much bout the adult side but the children's side
Is the best there is in my opinion. Our son had a major surgery
when he was 6 mths old. They can do things that you wouldn't
think is humanly possible.

UT is one of the top notch teaching hospitals but Vandy is even better. I have heard great things about them.
