Dear Editor,

Thank you for the wonderful service at Richmond Hospital.

A few weeks ago I was suffering severe stomach pain and my doctor advised me to go to the emergency department in Richmond. I arrived at 2 p.m., was in a bed at 2:15 p.m., had an injection for pain relief by 2:30 p.m., then lab work and a CT scan within the hour. 

I received a diagnosis, a prescription for antibiotics and was released by 5 p.m. 

Thank you to the nursing staff and Dr. Andrew Smith for the very comforting support I received.
