Patient Quotes

“Sometimes in our life and society, there are ‘cracks’ one can fall through, and I found myself in that very position.  Sometimes we find ourselves needing a helping hand, and you gave me just that.”

“I just want to continue to thank you for always being there for me and never turning me away.  I truly believe it is God working in your heart for the devotion and love you show people.”

“You and all the people who work in the clinic are incredibly good, because you always do whatever is necessary in order to help the patients to feel better, to be healthy and to be happy.”

“My teeth were literally falling apart.  The infections were so bad.  I would cry myself to sleep every night.  It was then I was told about AmeriCares.  I didn’t get my hopes up.  Every time it would seem that I would get help a door was slammed in my face.  Well, I was wrong this time.  She told me about the mobil clinic that they have.  And it goes to Brookfield which is about 20 minutes from my house… She promised to be there for me and set me up with an appointment at the clinic.  They prescribed antibiotics for me and gave me pain medicine…  and told me to go to the Danbury Hospital Dental Services clinic.  I did and little did I know how much my life would change…  The AmeriCares clinic has saved my life.  I have never seen such dedication or kindness from anyone as I have with the volunteers of this amazing and truly remarkable clinic.”

“I was at my wits end until I spoke with you.  You set me up with x-rays and and an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon.  He removed my cast, lent me crutches and gave me advice and a prescription for physical therapy.  Though I am not yet back to 100%, today I am walking and driving to my job interviews.  I realize it would not have been possible without AmeriCares.”

“Only people with a deep feeling for life can do what you did.  You saved my husband’s life.  I am praying to God with thanks for putting you in my way and to let you be in the right place.  I am very thankful with people like you because through your help I can celebrate another Christmas with my husband and son.”

I would like to pass along my heartfelt appreciation for seeing me and helping me obtain a referral to the Neurology Clinic.  I am very grateful to you for all your efforts – it is truly wonderful that you give so freely of your time and your talents.  You do an extremely valuable service for the community!  Your kindness, generosity and warmth are admirable.”
