Service and Staff

5 out of 5
I want to express our sincere thanks to the entire medical staffs. My wife has experienced some urgent need for medical care and ended up to go to off shore hospital for a quick procedure. Thanks for Dr Kennedy , David assistance to arrange all this in a very short period of time and we were able to get back to the ship to continue our trip. The entire medical staffs have provided excellent care to my wife for the follow up care after she returned to the ship . Every nurse is so kind and caring . Although we ended up spending unexpected amount of time almost daily at the ship medical center, we still be able to enjoy our trip. The entire medical team was so wonderful .
