THE ONLY THING HE DIDN'T SCHEDULE WAS HIS HEART ATTACK

“All my life I’ve tried to lead a healthy lifestyle. I never smoked, I have never been overweight and for over 25 years I was a regular runner. On April 25th, I came to work and started experiencing discomfort while sitting at my desk. This time, it was not from exercising. It would not go away. Ten hours later I was out of the operating room with six bypasses and I was alive. In my 56 years, I have lived in ten states throughout the United States…literally from Seattle to Boston. I think it is safe to say I could not have received better care anywhere than I received at Pikeville Medical Center.”

Dear Pikeville Medical Center,

My husband, Cleetis, was a patient in Pikeville Medical Center last week. He had two stents, one was a 3.5 inch blockage. Thanks to your staff, he walked out of the hospital and back to the life he enjoys.

Here is a picture of Cleetis doing one of the many things he has been able to enjoy doing,... he's driving (in a parade in Irvine) a 1948 Allis Chalmers G tractor that my dad bought new and Cleetis restored two years ago.

I am an ER nurse in Richmond and Mt. Sterling and I never miss a chance to refer patients to your hospital... Cleetis does the same.

Thanks to Pikeville Medical Center and all the new technology, he has enjoyed a wonderful quality of life! Thanks to you all for all the good work. We will show our gratitude by telling about your Heart Institute every time we get the chance!

Respectfully,

Stanton, KY
