@lioness I am very happy to live here in the northeast, about 55 miles from Boston and now go there for almost everything, but I had no idea that in SoCal it wasn't good. My son's gf was a nurse at UCLA Medical Center before they recently moved to Denver and she always said how wonderful it was there. She had been around because before settling there she was a traveling nurse. I know it's not quite as high up in the ratings as some of the Boston hospitals but it is pretty high so I just assumed that other hospitals out there would be too. Of course Cedars is supposed to be great too.

@contentandwell Like most areas, where there are several major hospitals there are a variety of experiences. Here in Los Angeles area, besides UCLA Med Center, there is Keck USC, Cedars Sinai, Good Samaritan, Hoag Memorial, Huntington Memorial, and others. I think each has their own strengths. Myself, due to kidney issues, my preference is Keck USC or Cedars Sinai.

@contentandwell yes the bigger hospitals are good but Im speaking of the smaller hospitals and more the problems are with my,not all, insurance systems Back east I went into the Pittsburgh hospitals and smaller ones where I worked . I would have loved to been a traveling nurse but didn't.I only moved to Ca after retirement no family left there ,my son,grandson drew me out here I still love the east Western Pa.
