I was admitted to the hospital on Friday, February 1, 2013, for chest pains. I have had three myocardial infarctions in the past and I was very afraid that this could be “The Big One.”
I was transferred to the fourth floor of the South Tower and had the experience of a lifetime, if you want to put it like that.
Not only was the tower beautiful – the rooms large and private – the most important thing was the care and attention I received. It was WONDERFUL, everyone was caring and understanding and was exceptional.
I had Suzanne for my day nurse, and Jules for the night nurse. My techs, Tabitha, Chelsea and Maria took great care of me. I am so impressed that I am telling everyone.
Even when after a heart cath and I couldn’t remember why I called for help, they all were patient and caring and even gave me a note pad to write down so I could remember.
You have a wonderful staff on the fourth floor of the South Tower. They all need a special award for the care they provide in situations such as heart issues.
I thank everyone who cared for me, Dr. Tran, Marsha Beckett, my nurse, the techs and the food service staff. My discharge was a breeze and I will always remember this experience.
Thank you Boone Hospital, I will not go anywhere else. You are #1 in my books.





I wanted to put you a very little observation so as to give thanks yet again with the striking thoughts you’ve provided at this time. This has been seriously open-handed with you to make without restraint all numerous people would have sold as an e book in making some cash for themselves, particularly seeing that you could have tried it in case you decided. The things likewise served to be the great way to recognize that other people have the identical dream much like my personal own to learn significantly more in terms of this condition. I am sure there are lots of more enjoyable times in the future for individuals that take a look at your site.
