Patient Reviews
May 02, 2024
My husband was rushed by ambulance last Saturday to Charlton Memorial. His symptoms were severe, but the ER doctor was unable to pinpoint the cause. He was admitted and Dr Bittar took over his case. Dr Bittar scheduled tests to determine it was not a stroke, heart problem, blood clot and many others. He was constantly in his room to review the results. After about a day and one-half Dr Bittar mentioned a test for ticks even though it was early in the season. The test came back positive for Anaplasmosis. Dr Bittar started the appropriate medication and within a couple of days my husband was able to be released. I have to thank Dr Bittar and the nursing staff of Charlton Memorial for his recovery. They are all very caring, professional, and knowledgeable individuals.
