August 2023 Kudos - St. Mary’s Physicians, Providers

Peer-to-Peer Kudo

Michelle Shiao, DNP, RN, CENP, NE-BC, Chief Nursing Officer, recognized Adam Cota, MD, with the following note:

I had the pleasure of rounding on one of your patients today. He could not say enough good things about you and your care. He had an accident in Crested Butte and said he was honored to be cared for at St. Mary's. He appreciated your professionalism and, at the same time, your easy-going personality. Dr. Cota, thank you for all you do.

Patient to Clinician Kudos

Megan Adams, MD, is an excellent surgeon!

Basheal Agrawal, MD, is exceptional. 

Eric Behrman, MD, is absolutely amazing!

Adam Cota, MD, exceeded my expectations.

I want to thank both Adam Cota, MD, and Kevin Keller, MD, for a smooth surgery, especially Dr. Keller as Dr. Cota told my family that the surgery went so well because of Dr. Keller's approach to anesthesia.

Steven R. Gammon, MD, and his team were great! The pre-op nurses and PACU nurses were just as great! They each genuinely cared about my needs and concerns. I would give my experience a 10.

Yogesh Patel, MD, is top-of-the-line with excellent doctor/patient skills.

Gina Carr, MD, was so amazing, I want her to be my PCP!

Peter Dahlheimer, MD, was very concerned and helped me greatly. He listened to me and proceeded to take care of my emergency very efficiently. He is the consummate ER doctor and I would love to have him as my doctor when my current doctor retires. I can’t say enough about how relieved I was and continue to heal daily. Thank you all for the help you gave me. It is so appreciated.

Emily J. Duethman, DO, is an amazing doctor.

Brent Fowler, MD, was extremely caring and helpful and took the time to answer any questions we had for him.

Mitchell J. Gershten, MD, was so good I asked him to come back to North Carolina and be my personal physician.

William Hilty, MD, was excellent.

I would recommend Vernon King, MD, and his wonderful staff, to all!

I loved Renee Lockey, MD, and John Mercer, Jr., MD. Not who I was planning to have during delivery but I couldn't be happier that they were the providers during my time in labor and delivery. Both were wonderful to work with!

David West, MD, and Thomas Githens, DO, were very thorough and patient with my many questions. I felt I was in good hands.

Benjamin White, MD, is absolutely the best doctor. I will follow him anywhere! He is brilliant and so responsive. My baby is healthy today because of him.

Benjamin White, MD, is the best. Thank you for taking such good care of me.
