"Thank you for the care my husband, Robert Suitor, received in the Grace Cottage ER.
I am used to the Brigham, Beth Israel, Mass General's, etc, but I assure you -
the care was every bit as good (maybe better) than the big city hospitals.
Keep up the good work."
Dr. Carol Suitor, Falmouth MA
“Thank you so much for going out of your way to help us
… when I came into the emergency room. Your personal and professional
care was remarkable.”
Ron Canter, Philadelphia PA
“As the mother of four young boys, I can attest from
first hand experience that boys are accident prone! Knowing
that the hospital and doctors’ offices are close by is
reassuring to my husband, Al, and me, but it’s more than
that. Everyone at Grace Cottage gives us the feeling that that
they really care how our entire family is doing, whether we’re
there for an annual physical, the occasional cold, or something
more serious. Among the six of us, we’ve tried out just
about every service that Grace Cottage has, and the care is
so personal and professional.”

“ ‘The patient always comes first.’ You hear
this at almost every health care organization these days. There’s
only one place that I’ve seen that this is actually true …
at Grace Cottage … and that’s why I chose to come work
here.”
Dr. Maurice Geurts, Grafton VT
“When I had knee replacement surgery I chose to recuperate
at Grace Cottage because Dr. Tim Shafer, who’s been my
doctor since 1984, is there. I kept a journal of my stay at
Grace Cottage: ‘I tried to learn everyone’s name:
every nurse, every therapist, the cleaning staff. An occupational
therapist helped me take the shower that I was longing for.
The dietary staff found food that I like to eat despite the
nausea caused by then medication. My physical therapy progress
was steady, noted and cheered. My nurse was soft and loving
like an ideal mother.’ I saw people who had worked with
my parents a decade ago. People tend to move around so much
these days, but I like continuity. And Grace Cottage has always
been a treasure.” Mareka
Ohlson, Dummerston VT |

"After the installation of my new hip, I had the pleasure
of "rehabbing" with the dedicated and caring staff of
Grace Cottage's Physical Therapy Department. All I can say is "WOW".
I'm now walking better than I have for twenty years, and the physical
therapists made me work and get strong again. I have watched the
therapists work with patients of all ages and they truly care. You
all are the best! "
Reed Erven, Townshend VT
“Dr. Maurice Geurts has me come for blood work about
once a month. Grace Cottage is a short drive from home,
there’s parking right outside the door, and they tell
me jokes at registration. There’s no waiting room
at the lab – there’s a waiting seat. There’s
hardly ever a wait, and you’re in and out of there
in no time. I’ve been doing this for five years, and
everyone who’s taken my blood at this lab has done
a great job.”
Jack Greene, Brookline
