Testimonials

“ ‘The patient always comes first.’ You hear this at almost every health care organization these days. There’s only one place that I’ve seen that this is actually true … at Grace Cottage … and that’s why I chose to come work here.”

Dr. Maurice Geurts, Grafton VT

"After the installation of my new hip, I had the pleasure of "rehabbing" with the dedicated and caring staff of Grace Cottage's Physical Therapy Department. All I can say is "WOW". I'm now walking better than I have for twenty years, and the physical therapists made me work and get strong again. I have watched the therapists work with patients of all ages and they truly care. You all are the best! "

Reed Erven, Townshend VT

  “Thank you so much for going out of your way to help us … when I came into the emergency room. Your personal and professional care was remarkable.”
Ron Canter, Philadelphia PA

“Thank you for making Grace Cottage the best, warm, caring and comfortable hospital I have ever been to. When I was a patient at Grace Cottage I was treated with such respect and caring. Everyone was warm and smiling all the time no matter what time of day or night.”

Jennifer Anderson, Westminster Station VT

“We would like to thank the doctors and staff for all their comfort at a most stressful time. You care for patients is outstanding, it is wonderful to see the support that you give.”

Bill & Cathy Schumacher, Massapequa NY

“If my experience at Grace Cottage could be reproduced throughout the country our health care system would be the envy of the world.”

Paul Higginson, Litchfield CT

“Grace Cottage is like Utopia. All the nurses are the gentlest and most considerate people I’ve ever met. Every time they came into my room they’d have a smile.”

Alice MacMenamin, Brattleboro VT

“It is a pleasure to support a medical facility whose priority is people, not profits!”

Alexis Dorf, Sharon CT

“There is not another hospital in this world that treats a dying patient and family with the care, love and compassion that you all exhibited with Mom and with us. This very difficult time for our family was made more tolerable by each and every one of you at Grace Cottage. Thank you for your tender loving care for Mother. Thank you all for feeding us, cleaning up after us, and being there for us to cry, laugh and share memories with.”

Family of Mabel Wright, Grafton VT

“I am in awe of Grace Cottage. It was like a little bit of heaven. Every single person we came in contact with was kind and compassionate to us all. For the staff at Grace Cottage it’s not just about a pay check, it’s the gift of caring and the gift of giving that motivates you all.”

Christine Briggs, Poultney VT

“After a head on collision we came to your emergency room where I was terrifically well taken care of. We were all so impressed about what a cheerful, well run place Grace Cottage is.”

Richard Lyman, Palo Alto CA

“Working at Grace Cottage is like coming home to the way that medicine should be practiced and the way it used to be. A lot of the bigger hospitals have lost the personal ambiance that you find at Grace Cottage’s emergency room. Patients still get devoted one-on-one care at Grace Cottage and the Grace Cottage staff is fantastic. I absolutely can’t say enough about them.”

Don Jackson, PA, Ludlow VT
