  • (1888PressRelease) November 21, 2012 - NASSAU, Bahamas -A new era in affordable, world-class healthcare began on Tuesday, November 6, as the first surgical procedure was performed in the newly-opened, state-of-the-art Bahamas Medical Center.

    "It's a very exciting time at the Bahamas Medical Center," said Barry Rassin, President of Doctors Hospital Health System and the Bahamas Medical Center. "The successful completion of the first major surgery is an important milestone for the Bahamas Medical Center as we continue our mission to provide our local and international patients with unsurpassed medical care and a truly personalized healthcare experience."

    The first surgery was performed by Dr. Gregory Neil, a highly-respected surgeon and Chairman of the Department of Surgery at Doctors Hospital. Several other, non-surgical procedures also have been performed in the new operating suite, the first of which was an esophageal gastroduodenoscopy (EGD) performed by Dr. Gemma Rolle.

    An elated patient was quick to comment about her positive experience with Bahamas Medical Center. "From the minute I arrived for my surgery that morning, the staff came straight to me and informed me about everything that was being done every step of the way." "Everyone was just awesome! They were very comforting and reassuring and took the time to answer all of my questions. I felt so comfortable, confident and special. When you're going to have surgery, you have anxiety. In an environment that is relaxing and where the staff is empathetic and sincere in how they treat you, it makes it so much more comforting. When you get good service and people are taking very good care of you, it lifts your spirit and your spirit is free to heal better. I was so pleased with the service and will recommend the Bahamas Medical Center to my friends."
