Dr. Douglass is a very thorough cardiologist. He looks out for me and apparently all the other patients that he has. He does listen, he's very patient. He's clean as a whistle, comes dressed like he's going to a party or business meeting, I should say. He's a very impressive gentleman, highly intelligent, and very, very thoughtful. I would recommend him to anybody.

I am an amputee and have a prosthetic when I arrived at the front desk in the lobby. No one asked me if I needed a wheelchair. No one offered to assist me to go where I needed to go. There was three people there I would have thought one of them would have just asked if I needed any help

BrettCare
After working in construction for more than 20 years, Brett Faucett knows all about the right building blocks. Piece by piece, a building comes together, but if one brick falls out of line, the whole system can crumble.
That’s why Brett knew something was wrong when the numbness started in his left arm. It came and went several times before he ended up behind the wheel of his car.
Sitting at an intersection, Brett was at a crossroads. He could turn right, attend his out-of-town business meeting, and ignore the sinking feeling inside. Or he could turn left and drive straight to the Emergency Department at Wellstar Kennestone Hospital.
“It’s really hard when you plan on going to work and you know people are counting on you. It’s hard to make that left turn and listen to your body.”
Brett took a deep breath and turned the wheel toward the hospital, forever changing the course of his life.
