To the Editor:

Last Monday morning, about 7 a.m., I went to the emergency room at Beaufort County Hospital. My wife and I were most pleased with the rapidity at which I received care and the professionalism of the diagnosis and treatment under the care of Dr. Murray and the rest of the emergency room staff. We could not have asked for a better experience.

Later that day, I was admitted to the hospital and came under the care of Dr. Benetich and the rest of the staff on the third floor. Everyone was pleasant, competent and helpful. The rooms were sunny and clean. And my problem was soon resolved.

I am writing this letter to let everyone know what a wonderful asset we have in the Beaufort County Hospital and its staff.
