Patient Reviews
Jun 07, 2022
I've nothing to say but just 1 fact that Dr. saved my life and i will never forget it. It was the most dreadful experience I've ever had in my entire life, those 3.5 weeks that i spent at Brigham & Women's hospital. If it wasn't for him & his radiologist back in 2017, i wouldn't be here. I cannot thank him enough (words don't cut it) and all the nurses of the ward (the entire 15th!!) for being so patient with me. I remember every moment, still. My recovery process, my pain meds, how i was pressing the release every second when i was afraid to feel more pain. And I remember the nurse who ran into my room almost screaming "yayyyy!! Your blood got so bad that the culture finally grew!" Right before this, it was the moment when i knew i had a few days to live, basically, i could barely open my eyes at that point, i had zero strength. My weight went from 130 to 111 lbs. It was a nightmare. But they didn't give up on me! I can't add much to this, it's emotional. But thank you for saving me!
