This is a long overdue thank you note to say huge thanks for taking care of us for the birth of our first child! We are truly grateful for your support, help, and wisdom in helping us achieve our goals for Jasper's birth. Thanks also for your patience and kindness in always answering my list of questions! We think you all are incredible doctors, and we had an excellent experience at Chestatee Regional Hospital (CRH). Jasper’s birth went better than we had hoped. Thanks for working with us through it all. We certainly plan to go back to CRH…one day! - Joni S |
