Getting Assistance
We want your stay at Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center to be a positive experience. Whenever you’re faced with something you don’t understand – whether it is a diagnosis, a medical procedure, or simply directions to the cafeteria – please ask your physician, nurse, or any other hospital staff member for further explanation.
