My husband, Larry, had a small stroke on Friday morning, Aug. 9th. We were in the emergency room by 7:30 a.m. Within four hours, Larry had a completed CAT scan, an MRI, a COVID test, an echocardiogram and a visit by the physical therapist. He was seen by the Hospitalist, Dr. Smith who gave him the results of his CAT scan. He was diagnosed with a Basal Ganglia Stroke by Dr. Mendez-Escabar and was admitted for overnight observation. He was visited by his doctor, Dr. Mendez Escabar, both Friday and before he was released on Saturday.
Now that’s incredible health service by any standard.
The nurses, sometimes two at time, were friendly, fun and efficient! They knew their job and they knew how to do it while putting the patient and his wife at ease.
We can’t say enough about the wonderful care during a stressful event! And to top it off, the food was delicious! How lucky we are to have such exemplary health care in Jefferson County!
