  I gave birth to my son almost three months ago, and my experience at this hospital was incredible. I had a c-section, and almost everyone that worked at the hospital was very professional and compassionate. I was beyond terrified because I had never had a surgery like that before, and I couldn't stop shivering from fear. The anesthesiologist was the sweetest woman, and patient, talking to me through the whole surgery. My doctor and everyone else in the OR was also very professional and compassionate, and if I could choose who would help if I have another child, I'd want the very same doctors, anesthesiologist, nurses, pediatrician, etc. The maternity nurses were also the sweetest women! They were patient, compassionate, and professional, especially Valerie and Shallet...they went above and beyond. The room was clean and private. The only negative part of my stay at the hospital was the lactation consultant. My son wasn't breastfeeding well and I ended up having to supplement with formula. My husband and I requested a consult with the lactation consultant for three days, and she spent maybe two minutes with me the third day and seemed like she was in a hurry to get somewhere. I had waited hours to see her that day while she was with other patients, which I didn't mind, but was shocked with how little time she spent with me. When I got home I read what usually went into a lactation consultation and I got none of that. I was only told to keep pumping...she didn't teach me positions, techniques, examine my baby and I, etc. My son is my first child so I felt clueless when I realized how much can be involved with breastfeeding. My son never did breastfeed well since then despite my best efforts and is unfortunately fed formula 99% of the time since my supply is decreasing. Breastfeeding was really important to me and upset me when it didn't work. I definitely feel that had I had an actual lactation consultation, perhaps things would have turned out differently. However, I'd still go to this hospital again if I have a second child because the rest of the staff was so good. Thank you!

  Please stay away from the emergency room unless absolutely necessary. My daughter was in there with a foot injury which resulted in the foot being wrapped, x-rays, and crutches. Nothing broken, just badly bruised. Time spent in there 90 minutes at best. They billed my insurance company about $4,300 between the hospital and the doctor who saw her once for 5 minutes. And I'm on the hook for about $2,000 out of pocket. I know emergency rooms aren't cheap and was expecting the bill to be in the $1,000-$2,000 range...but $4,300 is robbery!

  I had an excellent experience at Plantation from the very beginning through discharge. All staff from outpatient surgery, holding center, surgical team, and recovery were absolutely amazing friendly and kind. Everyone has great bedside manners.
