In patients' words

"She delivered my son in Salem hospital and could not of been more cruel. She was inpatient and sighed and rolled her eyes every time I pushed. I don’t know why she’s still practicing if she hates her job so much. Made my delivery traumatic."

"Throughout labor and delivery, my nurse, Lacey [Lacey Weishaar, RN], kept me informed of my progress... She was amazing. She was encouraging, calm and respectful."
