“This was my first experience with SGMC. I traveled from 2 hours away for my surgery so not only was I nervous but tired. I was greeted by kind, friendly staff at 5:00am. From the time I walked in the doors until the time I was wheeled out at 3:00pm, I was treated with the absolute BEST of care. Dr. James Davis and the team of nurses and OR professionals were AMAZING!
