"You cared for me on Saturday, June 15 when I was in the ER at Sturdy Health. It was my birthday, and I was having chest pain," said M. Keiper, who recently penned a grateful note to Dr. Patel. "Thank you for your expert medical care, the compassion you showed by sitting on the hospital bed when I cried, and for the thoughtful birthday cake (my favorite, carrot cake.) Your skill and gentle kindness is very appreciated. I wish you a happy and safe summer!" Thank you, Dr. Patel, for stewarding our mission of improving the health and well-being of the people in our communities through kindness, compassion and convenient access to the highest quality care.
