I arrived in the ER on Sunday night and very, very sick. Within minutes I was having a scan and shortly after was in a room. I was dismissed on Wed afternoon. My experience with everyone with whom I connected was exceptional. A team of doctors was quickly summoned; the nurses and techs were so very professional and showed a concern for my welfare. The custodians were also friendly and thorough. I rate my overall experience at Huntsville Hospital an A!
