December 2022 Honoree
Tonya Ginez-Hernandez, BSN, RN
I came to Rehab after hip surgery at Columbia Hospital. The care I received was some of the best I have received in my 88 years. I have nothing but praise for how kind and helpful the staff and physical therapist were to me. Tonya helped over and above what she had to do.
