Patient expresses gratitude for hospital staff
On Dec. 6, I had carotid artery surgery performed by Dr. David Kastl and his team at Hilton Head Hospital. I encountered 12 to 15 different workers at the hospital in my short stay there, and each and every one of them was totally professional, considerate, thoughtful and caring in every way possible. Dr. Kastl was magnificent, and I understand that his team was handpicked and certainly the best a patient could hope for.
