"...OSF St. Joseph Medical Center is my hospital of choice!"

The following letter was written by a former patient and OSF St. Joseph Medical Center employee about their recent stay at the medical center-

I would like to take the opportunity to thank my OSF Family for the wonderful care given to me during my hospital visit. Dr. Wellman's concern and research with Dr. Vallejo to ensure everything would go smoothly during my surgery gave me great confidence. Dr. Chandler's smiling face in OR holding, and the reassuring voice of Bunny after surgery telling me that she was there and it was going to be okay, was enough to let me know that I was in the best of care. My caregivers, Yaw, RN, and Elise, RN, were WONDERFUL, CARING, COMPASSIONATE, AND GENUINE. Elise punched out from her shift and returned to my room to make sure I got in my walk before going home. She walked with me for 45 minutes on her own time. Each and every caregiver from food services, housekeeping, and CNA's to nurses, took the time not only to care for myself, but also to care for my mother, who traveled 18 hours on a bus to be with me.

I'm proud to say that OSF St. Joseph Medical Center is my hospital of choice!
