I thank the whole medical staff in the Emergency Department for their prompt services. My doctors (Dr Nimish, Dr Tehseen, and Dr Hardik) were magnanimous, precise, and to the point. Kudos to Dr Ravi, Dr Bhagyashree, and all the brothers and sisters on the team. My deep appreciation to my dietician and the whole security staff for keeping us healthy and undisturbed. I received brilliant care from everyone, and everything went on smoothly, starting from hospital admission to discharge.
