To the Editor:
Parkview Hospital is a very wonderful, caring place. I have had 30 operations there and have had the very best of care. The nurses and doctors put you at ease and want you to have a quick recovery. You are not a number; you are treated like family. They tell you when you need a treatment and explain it to you in terms you understand. They don’t rush you when you ask questions. I have been to Central Maine Medical Center when my doctors thought I should go there, and have great respect for both places.
I want a choice when I need a hospital, and I choose Parkview and CMMC.
