Anna is my guardian angel. 17 months ago, I got COVID-19 and after I was better, my legs kept swelling up so badly I went to the hospital and Anna did an EKG on my heart and sent me to the Huntsville Hospital ER.

They told me it saved my life. My heart was only working at 20% now, after 17 months, 2 surgeries, plus a pacemaker-defibrillator, my heart is at 55%. I tried and tried to do all this Community Care without bothering Anna. I failed every time I would go to the hospital and ask to see Anna, every time she would make time for me, help me, and solve whatever problems I was having.

I owe my very life to Anna. She is so kind, courteous, and helpful. She goes and does above and beyond the call of duty, and what I wrote doesn't cover 100% of what I feel for Anna. Thank you, and God bless Anna.

Thank you, Diji Anna, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
