As we continue to reflect this week, we wanted to share this safety video Dr. William Sweezer filmed shortly before his passing. Dr. Sweezer loved our community and was passionate about letting the community know not to delay care during COVID. We were able to capture his witty personality during his outtakes and wanted to share these special moments with our community who we know also loved him too. His message still applies today. Don’t delay care with your primary care provider or specialists. Our hospitals and clinics are safe and ready to serve you. A special thanks to the Sweezer family for allowing us to share this video.

Thank you Dan River Region Pilot Club for your generous donation of yummy cookies to our staff! We appreciate you! #COVID19 #MakingCommunitiesHealthier #SovahStrong
