~Annette HInes

Some photos from the room and the view. The staff have been great post op, the patient advocate came around, the doctor and others to check on us before 10am. They have been in to change batteries and clean the room too. As you can see there are lots of posters around the room as reminders. The shower is very nice, wide and big enough if you are a large person, and they have a chair if you need it. Lots of room and very attentive staff. I would highly recommend. I have been in lots of hospitals in KY, OH and WVA. This hospital rates in the top three!

~Kathy Cremeans

Had a dreaded colonoscopy 3 weeks ago and Dr. Settle is the best. Before the procedure she came in to talk to me and after she left I felt totally confident in her. The nurses were top notch, answered all my questions and made me very comfortable! The procedure went smoothly and I was very pleased with all aspects of my procedure. Thank you KDMC for excellent care.
