I need to comment and salute your hospital after my recent visit for gallbladder removal. I cannot ignore the exceptional care and comfort provided by the nurses and techs on the 5th floor that I received during my short stay. My pain, discomforts and several embarrassing moments were handled without the slightest delays or excuses. I am amazed at how well I was treated and care for. All were incredible and kind to my needs, but Lindsey took additional steps with me by setting goals for my progress and she had so many doctors visiting me in my room, I truly thought I was the only patient in the hospital for a couple of days.
