Great hospital. I have a friend who was there around that time with leukemia, and had to have 2 bone marrow transplants before he was cured, and it took a couple of years, if my memory is correct. My sister was there after a heart attack a few years ago, too. I'm only about an hour west of Winston, so Baptist is the closest large teaching hospital.
