Learn MoreFor the most part very good, however the nurse who started the IV did it on the inside of my arm. It actually hurt the whole time until I was out. It also left a huge black and blue mark on my arm!
Everyone was very nice and attentive towards me. They answered any questions, and helped calm any nerves I had. Dr. Turse was great! I'll see you in 10yrs. 🙏
The professional care at this facility was exceptional! I was a little nervous of not knowing what to expect coming in, but once everything was explained to me and how the process would go I felt more at ease. Thanks to the care team for excellent service!

I had a great experience at Surgery Center of Melbourne. Staff are friendly. I was nervous going in and the staff helped me calm down. I liked that they followed up the next day after my procedure to check how I was doing. Dr Turse was great also!
