To compare TVRH to Leesberg Medical Center is like comparing apples to oranges. They don't give the same level of care. Not all hospitals are on the same level. Be thankful
Leesberg is so close to give you the high level care that is needed in some cases.
This was a major factor in considering moving to TV.
Where we live now there is only one hospital that is about 25 miles from our home. With that, and giving the response time from EMT's, how long do you think it will be before we are seen in the ER in a major emergency?
Consider yourself lucky.
Just my opinion.
