Sharon Fadler Frankel - the 54-year-old Leawood resident experienced sporadic, mild chest discomfort for almost four weeks. “The episodes would last just a couple of minutes and then disappear,” says Sharon. “With no personal or family heart disease history and no prior symptoms, a heart attack was the last thing on my mind.”
Adam & Amanda Brown - when they experienced several medical emergencies in a two-year period, they finally found a hospital’s emergency room that responded to their needs quickly, efficiently and professionally.
Jennifer Fastner - underwent brain surgery for epileptic seizures she had experienced since she was seven days old. Treated unsuccessfully throughout her life with every medication available for epilepsy, Jennifer was growing weary of the 30- to 40-second seizures, which began to increase in frequency last summer—Jennifer was having two to four weekly. It was apparent the seizures were becoming resistant to medication.
