    My dad had a difficult 3 weeks with his health. Dr. Blitz and the entire staff at Morristown Medical Center took excellent care and got him out of the woods. He is now recovering well. Event though Dr. Blitz was on a vacation during the incident, he made sure that his team is on top of the care that is needed and was well informed about his condition. Thank you!
