Featured Grateful Patient – Southcoast Star
After receiving care that she describes as above and beyond, Susan Fernandes nominated Southcoast Health orthopedic surgeon, Victoria Bruegel, MD to become a Southcoast Star through our Grateful Patient program. Susan, an orthopedic nurse at St. Luke’s Hospital, is familiar with the treatment journey patients go through from injury to recovery, with the help of Southcoast Health’s orthopedic team. However, it wasn’t until she experienced her own injury that she gained a personal understanding of the importance of orthopedic medicine. At her appointment, Dr. Bruegel took the time to explain each step to assure Susan that her fracture would heal properly. To read more about Susan’s story, click here.
