It was business as usual for Brian Dehm until he had to undergo an emergency appendectomy. He could have chosen any hospital, but chose Bristol even though he lives in Simsbury. “I knew I could count on the Emergency Department, Drs. Sayre and the surgeons, the nurses, and all the caregivers here at Bristol Hospital when I needed them most. We’re all fortunate the hospital is here, and that’s why I support it monetarily, and as a volunteer.”
