My father had a heart attack Monday and was admitted to the DeBakey Heart Institute @ HMC.
I lived in Hays until 1997, but now live in Topeka.  After hearing of my dad's condition I headed to Hays. My children were actually born at the old St. Anthony's hospital. (now HMC), but I'd not been in the facility for probably twenty years.

I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you how impressed I was with the hospital, and especially the heart institute. That is one, top –notch facility!   ………and the staff there, caring for my father, was superb to match. What a wonderful thing it is for Hays to have such a fine hospital.   I cannot say enough about how well we were treated. Dr. Markiewicz did the procedure and Dr. Davis was the attending physician.   Both were fabulous, but Dr. Davis was so gentle and caring toward my dad.   That meant a lot to all of us.
Our nurses were all wonderful, especially Lacy on the first evening.

Many, many kudos to ALL.

I have been here before and everybody was exceptional.  The nurses and doctors are fantastic.  Excellent care, great personalities, excellent food and service.

Been here with my father for over a week.  Excellent medical staff, especially Dr. Bed and Dr. Brenda.  Great nursing staff, feel like they are part of our family.  Ginny, Melody, Malorie, and Sarah are the greatest.  It takes special people to provide this type of service day and night with challenging patients and still show compassion and caring.  These people are an invaluable asset to your hospital.  Please convey our thanks to them.

Day shift was very attentive to my discharge needs.  Absolutely love the new cafeteria menu.  Being able to choose foods and when I called they were very friendly and professional.  Overall, thank you for treated me as family and a human being.

We always choose to come to your medical center because you have caring and helpful workers.  We always have good comments on your facility and nurses and doctors.

My stay at the Hays Medical Center has been the best, exceptional in all departments. Dr. Auberreish kept me informed, he always had time to discuss all my medical needs.  Nurses were very professional and I will continue to recommend HMC to all my friends.  It's definitely the place to go for all your medical needs.

Laci, Shannon, Allison and Barb are the people that I remember names.  I received the best care – everyone I have encountered was great.  I have dealt with other hospitals nurses and doctors and this by far was a wonderful experience and the utmost professional and best care.  I would highly recommend the hospital to everyone.  Thank you for taking such good care of me.

My mother has been in the hospital for the last three days and I have been here with her.  The staff was extremely professional, helpful and very accommodating.  I applaud each and every one of you.  Jana was outstanding.  Thank you so much.

All of our nurses were great!  Our needs were promptly met and everyone anticipated what we needed.  We were very happy with our stay and this region of the state is very fortunate to have such an advanced facility to come to.

The nurses and staff have been amazing from the very beginning.  They have been very attentive toward mine and my sons needs.  Even towards my husbands needs!  I hate being in the hospital but this is the most comfortable stay I have ever experienced.  Thank you so much!  You guys are amazing!  Keep up the great work!"

I came to HaysMed because my PA prefers your care and facilities in Dodge City.  Every person I met treated me professionally with great care and friendliness.  They never flinched with my questions.  I do wish that all caregivers were of this caliber.  I had several problems with travel - motel, prescription, the crew got them all handled and/or got me headed in the right direction.

I cannot say enough good things about the facility and the people that work there.  The quietest hospital ever - slpt very well, food was excellent and everyone was accommodating.  A hugh thank you to all!
