AdventHealth Surgery Center Daytona Beach - Daytona Beach (FL)

myfcso3 So I recently had my first appointment at complete health. I will tell you it was one of my best doctor appointments I’ve ever had. I didn’t even have to wait that long. I was in and out and under 30 minutes however they were thorough and very caring. I 100% recommend complete health to anyone.

Cheryl Lovelace I can’t say enough good things about Dr. Jamidar and the entire staff. They ALL put me to ease immediately! Thank you to all of you.

Matthew Schwarmann This review is for the Labor & Delivery section of the hospital.  If you just want the quick summary it’s 100% Have your baby here, the staff was beyond incredible! 1. Aletha our night nurse might be the most incredible human being on the planet.  We had a really long delivery; 39 hour induction including over 25 hours of active labor.  As you can imagine my poor wife was exhausted.  I know Aletha had to have other patients as well, but somehow it always felt like she was there every single second we needed anything.  Even more amazing on the 2nd night Aletha’s 12 hour shift was supposed to end at 7 am while we were about 36 hours in.  I’m still not sure exactly how Aletha knew but she just seemed to know my wife and I were hoping she would be able to stay, and sure enough Aletha worked 15 hours straight to stay with us through the birth of our son.  That extra 3 hours meant my wife got to be that much more comfortable having this amazing person helping to deliver our son, and we will be forever grateful we had this phenomenal nurse to help us through. 2. Sarah (our day nurse)-  Have you ever met someone where it’s simply impossible to talk to them without smiling and feeling happy?  Sarah is this exact person.  Picture just a ball of good energy.  Whether it was a joke, a story, a smile or just anything to make my wife feel better Sarah was perfect for it.  All while handling all her patients and duties.  Exactly what you need when going through labor.  People like here are one more reason to choose Halifax. 3. Kaylee- Another day nurse we had the pleasure of having.  Kaylee managed to combine a no nonsense attitude get the job done while making it clear she genuinely cared about us.  Her leadership was very calming and you just knew instantly you are in good hands when she’s around.  She answered so many questions from us and again made us feel comfortable in a stressful time. 4. Kendal- Kendal was a nurse from another department moving over to labor and delivery.  She has 3 kids of her own and multiple times she was able to give advice, answer a question, reassure us about difficulties etc etc.  She was kind and friendly and someday there will be another new mom who gets reassured by Nurse Kendal Moving to our general experience.  Right of the bat Halifax is the only Level 3 NICU in the area.  They also offer tours on Tuesday afternoons before you deliver just so you can see everywhere you will be going, fill out paperwork ahead of time and just be a little more comfortable.  Another thing we appreciated after we got admitted they let us know they had training nurses (as all hospitals do) who may want to watch the delivery but that our comfort was paramount and if we didn’t want any extra people in the room none of them had to come.  We wanted to at least try and help a little and agreed to having one training nurse observe who wound up being a lovely girl named Trinity.  She was really sweet, eager to learn and be helpful.  I imagine training under these amazing Halifax nurses Trinity will someday make another set of parents have a great delivery experience.  One more just perfect example of how much these Halifax nurses care.  As mentioned our labor was quite extended and my wife had been stuck at 4cm for hours.  Every other person who had come in around the same time as us had already had their babies.  Aletha came in to give my wife another check and when she came up smiling we knew we had finally progressed.  Aletha entered in we were 9cm (baby almost ready to come) in the computer and about 5 seconds later we heard the entire floor of nurses cheer.  Turns out they had all been checking on us on their external monitors for hours rooting for us.  It felt fantastic to literally be able to hear people caring that much. In summary I understand there might be a newer or prettier hospital somewhere, but I am beyond certain you will not find a safer, more comforting experience for delivery with people who genuinely care about you than Halifax Health Labor Delivery.

AnTonia DeAnna chandler I had an appointment on December 30th for Lab Work. Im "in house" so they told me I couldnt go to Labcorp and I had to have my blood drawn at the Daytona office. So I got my blood drawn by Janice on December 30th 2024. They were supposed to check my Thyroid and other routine blood work. I went in today January 7th 2025 for my follow up appointment to discuss my blood results. It was then that I was made aware that they lost my blood work for my Thyroid test. Janice didnt even remember me coming in on December 30th for my labs. I understand this office is busy so I will overlook that part but to lose someones blood work is another level of incompetence beyond comprehension. If this office can lose someones blood work so easily then it wouldnt be that unbelievable that they might accidentally mix up someones labs in the future. Which sounds like a lawsuit in the making, something upper management might want to think about. This is exactly why I wanted to go to labcorp and why I will request to do so in the future. Then Dr. Dyer said since they lost my blood work I could have it retaken today. Why would I have the same people retake my blood work after they already lost it? I cant keep having blood work done every week because they "misplace it". Its very scary to have your health be in the hands of underskilled medical employees. I dont see this ever happening at any other doctors office. I read my portal today after my appointment and it said I have "white coat syndrome" thats why my blood pressure was high. Wouldnt your blood pressure be high if you knew that your health was not being taken seriously? It certainly would make anyone upset. Also, it said I declined having my blood drawn today. What Dr. Dyer failed to mention is that the reason I declined the blood work was because they LOST my previous labs. Also, my portal said I have a Vitamin A deficiency. I wasnt even checked for vitamin A? If this office wants to continue to offer services like blood work then it needs to be more professional and organized.

Karen Milano Dr. Mercer has been my doctor since 2011. I have a lot of complex medical conditions and I really needed a doctor that I could trust and depend on. I have had many admits to the hospital and he has been there everyday, attending to me. He answers every call I make to him and always explains everything to me. He truly is exceptional! In addition, he has the best staff. They are always on the ball and handle everything promptly. Truly wonderful ! Thank you to all of you !

Nathan Mamula On Friday, 3/7/25 around 11PM, we took our 10-month-old kitten, Coconut, to the ER due to frequent and small urination with blood. We called ahead to check the wait-time, to minimize his stress, and were advised to bring him in immediately. They informed us that all animals would be physically examined upon arrival, & depending on the severity of the ailment, would be placed in queue accordingly. True to their word, upon arrival, they immediately checked for urinary blockages (potentially very dangerous/life threatening) but informed us that there wasn’t one, thankfully! The front staff, especially Rhianna, was incredibly kind, eased our nerves, and offered us a private room with WiFi and streaming TV, as we waited for the doctor. She was very knowledgeable and checked on us often as we waited around 3 hours to see the doctor. The vet tech, Michael, provided excellent care, keeping us informed throughout our wait, as well, and elaborated on the doctor’s directives. Both Michael and Rihanna were very helpful in answering any questions we had. Due to a software glitch and Coconut’s eventual “spiciness” (on brand), they were unable to complete a urinalysis, and removed the charge from our bill. Based on a physical exam, Dr. Z’s diagnosis was likely Stress Cystitis, potentially due to recent stressors that included neutering, trips to/from clinics, & the high volume/chaos of bike week. Because there didn’t appear to be any urinary blockages, she recommended we take him back home to continue monitoring him where he’s comfortable. She also prescribed two different pain meds to relieve his discomfort and to help relax his urethra — which appear to have worked, as he’s now urinating normally and enjoying his medication-enhanced cartoons. VECEV operates on a triage basis, so wait times vary, but our visit took about three hours. The bill was reasonable, covering the after-hours exam and meds. While we hope to never need them again, we’d return in an emergency. Huge thanks to VECEV for their compassionate care of Coconut!

Dan Fallow This place is wonderful you get right in they’re very cordial and very efficient and it Is sure better than waiting in the emergency room at the hospital for hours

Denise Nelson They should NO stars!!!! My son was hurt and we waited almost 2 hrs. No one came out to even look at him. Truly Terrible place!!!! Others came in with far worse issues and got no help. Honestly not sure what people are working here for. Most of them seem to be having personal conversations or just playing on their phone. No passion for health care or taking care of people. This place really needs something done. For treating a child like that CPS should get involved for not helping and letting him sit in pain. As a mom I kept asking when can they see him and they would just tell me too wait and go back on there phone. Very disappointing experience.

Elizabeth Price I booked an appointment online at 1am for 9am. I was early and made sure to do the check in. I was taken back early, tested, and spoken to in a timely and professional manner. I was on my way to pick up my prescription by 9:17. This is the quickest urgent care I have ever been to. Ive been with advent health since Oct of last year and havent had a bad experience with them at all. The urgent care visit was fast, the nurse made sure to ask about the tests I wanted to run, and the NP made sure to communicate with me, made sure to switch a prescription because of an allergy, and both told me and gave me written instructions for my prescription. All around just a pleasant experience which was wonderful to not be stressed out when I was feeling so ill. Thank you all so much!
