Dr. Tashakori was Great she was very professional and thorough. The only problem I do have is with the hospital Aurora South is the worst hospital I’ve ever been in. It’s dirty. Disgusting the nurses were unprofessional. I understand that there’s a learning phase there, but it was ridiculous. I was deprived in my medication that I take every day for Pain and Diabetes. The nurses would not listen to me. I was treated like a drug addict. I did not appreciate it one of the nurses boots very rude to ask me well what do you want some hydromorphone I told her no I don’t want any morphine. I just want my medication that I take every day and I never got that. I was in pain after the surgery and before the surgery the worst was after I will never step a foot in that hospital again or the emergency room but Doctor T Doctor Tasha Corey was great. I would have her do surgery on me if need be again.

Dr. T. always takes the time to listen to me and i feel like she understands my concerns. I like her non surgical, more conservative approach.
