Patient Stories | Staff Interviews

My 18 month old son had tubes the other day and the staff at Covenant was wonderful! My son was a champion and the surgery didn’t even phase him, but as his mom I had a tough time. Everyone was very respectful and courteous. My son even hugged Dani, the nurse as we left.

I have had the occasion to use Covenant’s services many times over the last six months. In each case, I was welcomed to the hospital or ambulatory surgery units by smiling, friendly and caring members of the nursing staff. During my last trip, Michelle B and Stephanie prepared me for surgery and Brandy and Danny got me ready to go home. In-between a whole staff of excellent professionals provided me VIP treatment. This didn’t only happen once, it happened at every visit regardless of who my helpers were. I only wish I had kept a list of all these individual names, but I guess I was too busy worrying about getting home. I thank all of you and would recommend each of you to anyone needing medical care.

I had carpel tunnel surgery April 18 by Dr. Knudson and he was excellent. I had great care from the staff. Special thanks to Brett Fry RN, Teresa Bovy RN and Brenda Metcalf RN and the OR team including Dr. Kippes anesthesia who was great. I would highly recommend Covenant to family and friends. Thank You.

My procedure was done on 5/4 by Dr. Bernard. Jeremy did the preliminary vitals -  quick, efficient, on time, and very friendly. Kim was the nurse and she was also very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful to the doctor. The doctor and nurse seemed to work well together. Dr. Bernard was very good at putting me at ease and not being anxious. The room was clean and organized. Thanks for always being there for us!

We are very grateful to the team at Covenant Ambulatory Surgery for the care and consideration you gave to our Mother, Elsie B., and to us. The entire staff, including nurses Stephanie, Sue, Allison, Rebecca, and Lisa, and Dr. Knutson, provided helpful and understanding treatment, taking into account Mother’s dementia and special needs. They provided us with ample information and were concerned with our comfort as well. We are very pleased and grateful for their professional and competent care.
