People all over the world say that doctors are now just businessmen, the level of medical services is decreasing, etc. And I, in poor physical condition, ended up in an exceptional place. The admission room of the Juravinski Hospital. This place is full of professionals with a full range of empathy and human understanding. A quick interview, a complex of tests and the results showed what was wrong with me. I was surrounded by care and allowed to believe that it was not over yet. Here you can feel safe. After a few days, I was transferred to the E3 ward to continue treatment. In this ward, only Angels work. The doctor is a professional and perfectionist, the nurses and the entire staff are world-class medical services. I am home now and continue my treatment. I would like to thank the entire Juravinski Hospital and especially the Angels from the admission room and ward E3. Special thanks to nurse Jennifer from the E3 ward of my Angel, who helped me survive the difficult period of illness. My opinion is professional because I have a medical education, which the Hospital did not know. Thank you for rescue, treatment and care. Best regards, Małgorzata (Margaret) K.
