Bad skiing accident on Feb 6th - 7 broken vertebrae with surgery (extremely lucky I can walk), 2 broken ribs, will need a shoulder replacement, and a TBI (with need to sedate me for a day). The pain I was in made my previous kidney stones experience seem pleasant. Fantastic care at Barton Hospital , South Lake Tahoe. As a former LifeFlight pilot, I spent a lot of time in an ER so it was easy for me to recognize truly great care.

BARTON ER took prompt accurate care of me two nights ago. The problem was a nasty Bee sting reaction. Their management was thorough, kind efficient appropriate...and I know because I am an internist MD myself. Five stars! and thanks!

Cindy, the mammography scheduler, is wonderful! I had to get an urgent mammogram while traveling in the Tahoe area, and she was able to fit me in on short notice, then when the scanner was out of order the day of my appointment, called over to another hospital in the area to get me in that day. She went out of her way to get me the care I needed during a scary time, and I'm very grateful for her help.
