This is the best Dr/nurse, and Nurse/PA and registration staff I've ever met. Not sure of their proper titles. But they all went out of their way to help me, and explain things to me. They made me feel very comfortable.

Katie Bessey is always, as this time, knowledgeable, showing real concern and consideration of the circumstances and information before making a recommendation. She is friendly and shares exactly what I need to know about my situation.

The infectious disease team is is above the mark in providing specialty care. Each of the professionals I encountered both inpatient and outpatient was knowledgeable about their discipline and my case. They all made an effort to show care and compassion. When I had a concern between appointments, they called late in the day and conducted a thorough interview and provided useful information.
