Patient Comments

August 2012

It's been our experience in other hospitals to wait for hours. Everyone, the nurse, to the nurse taking his labs to the sonogram tech were awesome.  They were quick and explained everything and apologized when they didn't have an answer.  Definitely will not hesitate to come in and refer others when necessary.  Awesome job." 

Everyone was very caring and helpful.  Kami was wonderful with our little boy!  She explained everything she was doing to him in a way he could understand.  Couldn't ask for a better nurse.  Thank You!"

Our care was great.  We were taken care of in a timely manner and the staff was very caring.  Couldn't have had better care - admissions went smoothly.  Thanks to all the ER staff!
