Went in the ER about 2 Monday afternoon was admitted that night a person came in look at my toe that day the Dr was there the next day only because of surgeries Thursday x-rays and a MRI and by Friday 6:00 my toe was gone and by doing so when he did saved my foot or more from a infection that had started on the bone. This is not the first time I have delt with surgeons and everyone was relaxed professionals with exemplary knowledge and skills and as always the nurse's and aids were awesome and when needed advocated for me . Thanks to all of them
