An awesome caregiver. Kind and thorough.
He was professional, kind and perfect ally patient, to listen to me and answer questions of .y own, easy to understand, what my responsibility I have to do to help my healing process concerning circulation, keeping joints from becoming to stiff, so yes exercise therapy, sanitation, and coverings how extremely important it is, also use of lotions or creams , how to properly shower, and remove sticky areas from dressing gs. What to expect in the worst finger that is dark, and silvery ( my biggest fear) but he was extremely helpful to tell me what was coming ahead, how I ( will loose that nail) skin will peel away, ALL about it, sounds painful but all necessary and was honest to let me know it may not become as well as the rest ) I expected that. But he was great, to converse with. Very helpful, even encouraging. Scarry stuff to deal with. Thank you for this opportunity to answer your questions.
Very kind and caring concerning my injury. Took the necessary time to thoroughly explain every detail of the treatment plan and what to expect. I didnt feel rushed and he truly showed empathy!
He took time to check in with me not only about my physical health but also my mental health.
This is not my first time with Westley I like what he does
He took the time to listen to my concerns and then addressed each one. He showed me some stretches to do to help my hand become more usable. He took the time to explain to me what to expect as the healing process continues. I just got such a sense that he cared about my well being- and that he really wanted to help me get back the full function of my hand.
Courteous, respectful, informative, knowledgeable.. some of the other answers before this question that showed his name varied. I had 2 appointments yesterday so the other experience that I had some concerns with was in mind
He was clear in his explanation of the procedure. He was kind and listened to my questions, and provided the best answers.

Our provider Westley Hunsaker is AMAZING! He spent so much time in our room, made us feel like our needs were the only thing he had to do that day. He was compassionate, encouraging, informative, and confidant in his medical assessment and recommendations. Wonderful provider!
"Wonderful People" are willing to help me in an unfortunate experience. Although I would have rather have not had to deal with this, it has been "GREAT" To have help from PEOPLE WHO GENUINELY CARE.......
I` would LiKe to nominate;
Providers gave me clear, concise, & very understandable evaluations and plans for treatment. It all made sense to me. I was confident in my ability to agree with treatments. It was all in line with my thinking.
The doctor informed me of everything I needed to know. Also what to look forward to in the future.
Burn unit is absolutely awesome! 2 weeks in BTICU and multiple outpatient visits and every single employee has been better than I could have ever asked for. Please take whatever you put in the water and give it to all employees and the University will be better than the best! I honestly brag about them every time I tell my story.
we were seen by the doctor, PA, nurse, and PT. all were courteous, thorough, and friendly.
I have been really impressed with the caring, knowledgeable treatment I've been receiving.
everyone from beginning to end were very kind and helpful. They took very good care of me.
West was wonderful. He put all my worries at ease and explained everything in such a great way. I knew exactly what I needed to do, possible complications, when to call, a timeframe of when healing should occur, etc. He answered all my question and provided a comfortable environment in which I felt like I could ask anything and express any concerns.
