I wanted to give a quick shout out to Dr. Trevor Owen surgeon in orthopedics. Dr. Owen presents with excellent bed side manors. He is very thorough with his work. He always will take the extra time to chat with you if necessary. Dr. Owen is very busy and even in his busyness he demonstrates all five C's of Carilion. I have appreciated all his hard work and care to my needs. You are one of a kind Dr. Owen. Thank You for all you do.

Angie Shively, RT (R) (CT) of Imaging, and Carl Cline, RN, MSN, Senior Director of Nursing, were spotted while leaving to go home one day trying to help a gentleman in his van to go home. It appeared to be quite a difficult task but Angie was doing everything she could to make sure that he was helped into the van properly and safely. There were a couple of people with him who didn't seem to be able to offer much help. Then Carl came up, got into the van and helped her lift the patient in.
