From checking in to the x-ray techs to Dr. Whitaker taking his time to explain why I'm in constant pain. For also, giving me a couple of options to think about moving forward. He genuinely seemed to care.

I want to thank everyone whom I came in contact with from my Dr. all the way to the cleaning staff. I was made to feel at home and welcomed. I think it helps a person convalesce because you fee that someone cared. Thank you.
