To the editor:

I recently had the opportunity to work with several amazing individuals in our community whom I need to personally acknowledge. I can’t thank them enough for the care I received from each one of them. Fort Dodge is truly blessed to have these individuals working in our community.

UnityPoint Urology: Dr. Mark Newton MD, Dr. Eric Askeland MD, Dr. Eric Andersen MD, Jordan Reeder ARNP. Their competence, professionalism and their capability to instill the utmost confidence in their abilities gave me the assurance needed to put me at ease during my recent treatment. They answered all my questions in a way I was able to understand and never acted like they were in a big hurry to get on with their day. They took their time with me and made me feel important and secure in their capable hands. Fort Dodge is so very fortunate to have these incredible doctors come from Waterloo to fulfill our urology needs.

Webster County VA Affairs and Medical Clinic: As a Vietnam veteran, I really appreciate Dan Lewandowski, Debbie Ladd and all their awesome staff for all their help and support with my recent medical issues. They are very dedicated individuals who care deeply about veterans and helping them with their needs. Fort Dodge is lucky to have such a fine facility and staff in our community.

Dr. Leopoldo DeLucca MD ENT: A big thank you to Dr. DeLucca and his staff for treating me with so much respect during my recent visit.
