UTMB's Dr. Michael Warren, in his weekly column, writes that bugs can invade hospitals but that doesn't mean a patient should not take action. "Express concern and don't ignore the problem. Hospitals don't want bugs any more than you do. Expect reasonably prompt attention to the matter. A pest-control professional should be called promptly and, if one is not available in a reasonable amount of time, you can request a room change."
