Chief Resident
From a Grateful Patient...
"I am one of the survivors of the Megabus crash of 9/11/10, and I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful, speed and above all, kind service you provided. ... I have never before experienced the strength and kindness of doctors, nurses, and paramedics operating in a horrific situation. ...To the doctor who stitched up my eyelid, Dr. Landon Jones, it is healing beautifully, and... I've been told it likely won't even leave a scar. Thank you!
