A Letter from a Family Member of Two Catawba Valley Medical Center Patients:

“I am writing this letter to commend your staff working in Day Surgery at CVMC. Recently I had two family members as patients in your unit. My daughter had a lap cholecystectomy about two months ago, and my husband had a colonoscopy a few weeks later. Then last Saturday, my daughter had an endoscopy. Though her surgery was delayed due to emergencies, our experience was wonderful. You have a very supportive, informative and caring staff. During all three experiences we were treated with the utmost respect, kindness and care. Mrs. Denise Stiles, RN, was our nurse for two of our experiences and she was great! On Saturday we were cared for by Debra Sites, RN, and Nancy Johnson, RN. Again our care was great! The OR staff was also wonderful!

“My family and I wish to congratulate you and your staff for the fine job they are doing in the Day Surgery Unit. Thank you so very much for a wonderful experience. I would not hesitate to recommend CVMC Day Surgery to friends and family members. Keep up the good work.”
