We think it is an absolute atrocity what the administration and board of
the Wyoming Valley Health Care (W-B General Hospital) is doing to one of the
most skilled and caring physicians this area has ever had. Dr. David Sedor’s
patients, many of whose lives were saved by his expertise, are behind him 100
percent and are enraged by the intrigues that have been concocted to get rid
of him. A large majority of the other physicians at the General Hospital
recognize his unique skills and are in favor of Dr. Sedor’s reinstatement.
This community should rise up as one in protest of what is going on in this
case.
Truthfully, the persons who should be axed are the axe men themselves, Dr.
Host and his assistants. We have lost enough good physicians from our area due
to the increases in PA’s liability insurance. We cannot afford to lose
another, especially one of Dr. Sedor’s ability.
Most of Dr. Sedor’s accolades are because of his surgical skills. However,
in my wife’s case it was because of his patience and care in not performing
surgery immediately after her accident, and as he predicted and monitored, her
cranial bleeding stopped after a few days.
So, if we all get behind this good man, and put enough pressure on the
hospital board, they may come to their senses and allow Dr. Sedor to get back
to work, doing what he does so well. Reinstate Dr. Sedor.
