From a CT scan, my doctor found something on top of my adrenal gland and decided that the whole adrenal gland should be removed just in case it was a tumor. My results came back good and the cut that Dr. Livhits made is also good and healing well. My hospital stay was good; however, I have one minor comment about my stay. At the time I was being admitted to the hospital, it seemed as if there was a new nose swabbing procedure, as the nurse there had never done it before. I do not think it was the nurse’s fault, but the management because they did not provide enough training for their employees. Overall, my experience was very good and I would definitely recommend Dr. Livhits and all staff members associated with UCLA health.
