This hospital is amazing and everyone I encountered was so kind, knowledgeable, and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and cared for. The pulmonary Dr. and team is also amazing, kind, and very knowledgeable, and went out of their way to make me feel comfortable and cared for. Anesthesia also kind, caring, knowledgeable, and went out of his way to make me feel comfortable and cared for. I felt like I was in great hands all the way around here, very important when having a procedure done. The doctors are the best and I will definitely be back when I am in need of excellent care. Thank you to all.~Deanna Sweitzer
I had hand surgery on January 30th with Blake as my post op nurse and I can't say enough great things about him. He is kind, gentle, sweet and professional. You can tell that he really cares about your wellbeing. He made me laugh and took my mind off of the pain and was just the BEST NURSE I've ever had. And I've had a lot of surgeries and hospital stays. He should be teaching the classes for being a nurse. Most wonderful experience ever. He anticipated my needs. He's so very compassionate. He is the most wonderful nurse in the profession!~Lillian Swafford
