Cabinet Peaks Medical Center is more than a 'band-aid station'

I wanted to write this letter, as I was recently a patient at Cabinet Peaks Medical Center. I, for a long time, thought of our hospital as a band-aid station and told my family that if I was ever sick to make sure I was taken to Kalispell or Spokane. I now realize how wrong I was.

I recently had a medical emergency and have to be the first to admit that I received outstanding medical care here in Libby.

I think kudos are in order to Cabinet Peaks Medical Center. From the receptionists and the operating room physician (Tony Fantozzi and his nursing staff) to Dr. Ercanbrack and his surgical team, the second floor nurses, assistants and everyone connected to patient care and comfort, even the cleaning ladies.

Dr. Ercanbrack’s bedside manner was the best I’ve ever seen. He was truly concerned with my welfare and recovery. He absolutely went the extra mile for me!

I’d have to say that my experience at Cabinet Peaks Medical Center was the best I’ve ever had at any hospital. We, as a community, should be very proud of our local hospital and utilize the services we have here in our community. I know that I will think twice before I take my health care outside Libby.
