"If I ever have to have surgery again, I’m going to Covenant.
Those people all love their jobs,"
- Danetta W
When Danetta Wesley sought her doctor’s advice on the migraine headaches
that were plaguing her, the last thing she expected to hear was that she
had an aneurysm.
Nevertheless, that’s exactly what her MRI showed. In fact, a follow-up
angiogram found a second aneurysm located behind Danetta’s left
eye—a very dangerous location.
That’s all her neurologist in Amarillo, Texas, needed to see to refer
Danetta to the Covenant NeuroScience Institute.
"My doctor told me she wanted me to have the very best care available—and
that meant making the trip to Lubbock to see Dr. Smith," said Danetta.
A few months later, Dr. Smith did indeed perform the surgery—and
ran into complications along the way. "All told, I think I was in
surgery for more than 8 and a half hours," said Danetta.
Today, though, Danetta has recovered and is back to doing what she loves—taking
care of her family. Her experience at Covenant left her with one overwhelming
conviction:
"If I ever have to have surgery again, I’m going to Covenant,"
Danetta said. "Those people all love their jobs."
