Avera Saint Lukes Behavioral Health Unit

Thanks to Dr Chris Larson and Connie. I received care from October 2017 through April 2018. In that time there were 2 RNs in the ICU that I felt were outstanding. JOE BARNETT & DIANE PETERSON WATSON. They always had time for me, and listened to my various ramblings with a smile. I would rate their bedside manner a 10 without hesitation. Thank you again.

Came in initially for pain in my ankle and I couldn’t bare any weight. Unfortunately I wasn’t showing enough symptoms at the time to get time off work nor pain management. I’ve seen a PA who’s also said I can’t take time off work and doesn’t help with pain management but sets up an MRI for me. Ten days after my initial visit I’m forced to return due to more severe pain and swelling. The Dr. was very caring for my well being. She wrote me a note to excuse me from work and gave me pain management until I get my MRI and see my doctor. Honestly, the best Doctor visit I’ve had in Aberdeen.

The doctor on call as well as the nursing staff were excellent. Mom was in the hospital June 21, 2019

I’m so thankful and find the good people around this hospital. We were visited Aberdeen and my dad was very sick and we have to sent him there. Our first time so we don’t know how they will treat us, but the ER staff there is so helpful and understanding. Not only ER but every single Staff and doctors around there is so excellent except one person but I don’t mind. We don’t speak English so well and fluently but they understand us and listen to us. When my dad very sick till they have to move him to Sioux Fall, SD to get Medical treatment because they don’t have Doctors who acknowledges my dad is sickness, they’re still beside me and encourage me to be strong. Now my dad is very healthy and happy for your service, not only him but all our family members appreciate what you did. Thank you.
