Amazing care at Surgery Center of Allentown ❤️ I cannnnot say enough positive things! So patient, excellent communication with the person there with you… text, coded ID tv screen with updates, AMAZING!!! They cut the tension with humor and were so kind the whole time… constantly making sure I was comfortable before surgery, walked me through each step. After surgery made sure my pain was managed and I headed home.
