Editor: I write to commend Mid State Medical Center. I recently underwent minor hand surgery at the Surgicenter at Mid State Medical Center. It was my first personal experience as a patient and I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism, competence and helpful demeanor of the doctors, nurses and staff. From start to finish, their service was exceptional. It was a very pleasant experience. We are fortunate to have such a high quality hospital serving our community. Keep up the good work.
