I am an Emergency Medicine Physician at North Florida Regional Medical Center in Gainesville, Florida. My 80 yr old father was admitted to Bert Fish Medical Center after he fell 15ft from a ladder with a chainsaw in hand while trying to cut down a large tree limb. His fall knocked him unconscious and he came in critical condition to your Emergency Department where he had excellent and very thorough medical care from Dr. Taylor and his ER nurse, Natalie.
From the moment my father stepped into your hospital – from the Emergency Department to his one week long stay at PCU-he had the most amazing care from your house staff physicians, nurses, CNS’s, ancillary services and all those who helped in his care.
My mother and I were in the hospital 24/7 and got to know everyone who took care of him in the PCU. Please commend and recognize your wonderful staff in PCU who took care of my father.
CNA’s – Tracy, Opal, Corrine, Doris, Shaina, Kim
Nurses- Dee, Keirstyn, Sara, Vera, Christy, Pat, Matt, and all the PCU charge nurses and Natalie (his ER nurse.
Physical Therapists – Mike and Diane
Respiratory Therapists – Jim, Steve, Allison and Margie
Food Services – Sigga
Transportation – Darrel –who was so kind to my dad (they are both veterans) –he came to visit him daily and really cheered him up!
APEX home health –Jim amazing in help with discharge and all we needed at home

I also want to especially thank Dr. Taylor, Dr. Day, Dr. Berger, Dr. R Ailani, Dr. Zacharis, Latoya (pulmonologist’s nurse practitioner) Dr. Epstein, Dr. Kolluri, Dr. Khalil, and Dr. Toub who all gave my father excellent medical care that saved his life.
My family and I were so very impressed with your hospital staff. Everyone had such a positive caring and professional attitude towards my father and family.
Please let your ER and PCU staff know how incredible they were in the care of my father and there are not enough words to say or show how grateful we are to them.
Best wishes in your transition with Florida Hospital System. I do hope you keep your present staff with the transition for they are all an invaluable, remarkable asset to your hospital.
Gratefully,
Sudhipong, MD
