The case stems from a lawsuit filed last year by the National Association for Gun Rights. The Virginia organization argued it w...

We experienced relief when we heard it wasn't cardiac related, but he needed to be admitted so a diagnosis could be achieved. The nursing staff of the fifth floor was exceptional, just like the ER. The diagnosis resulted in a surgery performed by Dr. Damian Ymzon. We were very impressed with this competent and fine surgeon. My husband has made a...
