In patients' words

"I have heard bad things about the ER at Athens, but you won’t get me to say anything bad about the ER at Athens because they were all wonderful. I couldn't have asked for better treatment because they cared. And thank goodness they did!"

— Rudy Swafford, Heart Patient (Starr Regional testimonial)

"If you want to die go here! In the ER I have gone with serious heart issues and they treated me awful. They say they have a trauma unit yes but the do not know what they are doing."
