JohnsAttn: Director, Carol BogedainDear Ms. Bogedain,My name is Linda Fuhriman and I am a Vet who had surgery (Partial Matrixectomy) on Tuesday,January 17, 2012 at the Roseburg VA Hospital. I want to let you know that I received the best carethat I have ever received during a surgery. I had a bladder surgery at a clinic outside the VA inDecember of 2009. I feel they could learn a lot from the employees at the VA. I’ve always beenhappy with my care through the VA Healthcare System.My care on Tuesday was with Dr. Malak and his OR nurses, Jackie and Stephie- (I did not get thelast names of the nurses or the names of the staff that prepped me for the operation,) they are themost professional nursing staff I have ever dealt with. My comfort seemed to be first and foremostto these folks and they constantly made sure I was provided with warm blankets and that I wascomfortable on the gurney and other furniture.Thank you and all of the VA staff for the care they provide me and my husband, who is also a Vet.Linda FuhrimanKudos
