After surgery, GSU patient writes, “Your entire staff is made up of the greatest people ever assembled.”

We received this handwritten letter of thanks to the General Surgical Unit (GSU) team from a very appreciative patient. His exuberance and gratitude are evident in every line — you could almost sense his smile through the page. Way to go, GSU!

I was recently a patient on GSU after I had surgery to remove a tumor from my colon. I planned on a short 3-5 day stay at your amazing hospital. However, my body decided not to cooperate and I was there for much longer.

Any attempt I make to put into words how fortunate I am to have had the privilege of being cared for at AAMC will fall far short of my true feelings. So just let me say that your entire staff is made up of the greatest people ever assembled.

Every minute of every day, I felt as if I was the only patient being cared for. I had no idea such an experience was possible.

I didn’t get a chance to say thank you to everyone who go me though my recovery but please know that I thank them every day in prayer.

Thank you and everyone at AAMC for their dedication and service.
