If you have further questions concerning this or other medical procedures, I would encourage you to speak directly with your health care provider at the hospital. He or she would be happy to answer your questions or obtain the answer from a qualified specialist. Kudo for bus drivers I don't think our shuttle bus drivers receive - as much appreciation or credit as they deserve. I feel they really deserve a vote of thanks from all of us and should be commended for the way they do their job under all conditions. Regardless of the weather hot, cold, snowing raining or whatever the buses are never more than a minute or two late. They are very dependable. The drivers never fail to be courteous regardless of what the passengers might say to them, and they are always willing to go that extra mile for the customers. I think they should get a big pat on the back, and maybe even a few awards or Q A fcEfiQCZB something. Thank you for your kind remarks and timely comments. We are very proud of the base shuttle bus operators who consistently provide friendly and reliable service. Their safety record is remarkable, considering the four buses travel 11,440 miles per month. During the past year our bus operators have been recognized with three promotions and four sustained superior performance awards. We appreciate the outstanding performance of our operators, as well as the time you have taken to extend your appreciation.
