Finding Peace of Mind: Teresa Blackard's Colonoscopy Revelation

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care I received from Dr. Demusey and the entire team at Rutherford Regional Health System. When I underwent a colonoscopy, little did I know it would be a life-saving procedure.

If it weren't for Dr. Demusey's expertise and thoroughness, I wouldn't be here today. The tumor that was discovered during the colonoscopy was about 4 centimeters, and fortunately, it hadn't spread to any lymph nodes. His skillful surgery removed the tumor entirely, sparing me the need for chemotherapy.

Throughout the entire process, Dr. Demusey was not just a doctor but a compassionate guide. From pre-setting to post-setting, he explained everything in terms my family and I could easily understand, alleviating any confusion or fear. Even in moments of waiting, he was a calming presence, walking me through each step with care and compassion.

I approached the surgery with a mix of determination and fear, but the support of Dr. Demusey and the amazing nursing staff made all the difference. Despite the pain and uncertainty, nurses like Tammy Bridges and Kathy O'Meara were there every step of the way, providing comfort and support.

I am especially grateful for the promptness and efficiency of Rutherford Regional Health System. From diagnosis to surgery, everything moved swiftly, ensuring I received the care I needed without delay.

I am truly blessed to have had Dr. Demusey and the entire team at Rutherford Regional Health System by my side during this journey. Their dedication, expertise, and compassionate care saved my life, and for that, I will be forever thankful.

Sincerely,

Teresa Blackard
