Connie Ziegler didn’t let sudden paralysis stop her active lifestyle, but the resilient Derry Township woman was almost derailed by something that many women suffer silently: Overactive bladder.

“I couldn’t tell when I had to go and I leaked because of bladder spasms.

This letter should have been written years ago but is just as heartfelt today as when you first took me as a high risk prostate cancer patient. I thank you for being sincerely sympathetic to my condition and treating me in a very warm and humane manner. I appreciate, now and then, how you were very open, honest and thorough in your explanations of my condition, prognosis and possible side effects. I felt as if I could have been your only patient. I feel fortunate to have you as my urologist. My wife, and I truly appreciate the expert, capable, warm, and empathetic manner in which I was treated and our neighbor before me. Thank you very much! I will continue keeping my appointments with you and wish you the best. — BH

Thank you for taking wonderful care of me. The highlight of my hospital stay was when you would come to my door. You were so kind and caring and “forgiving” when I fought you. Every patient who has you for their doctor is blessed. Thank you for the huge difference you made in my life. — EK

It is with a heavy heart that I tell you my dear grandmother has passed away. She was a fighter until her last breath for sure. So for you and your team, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. Your guidance and support and kindness did not go unnoticed during her journey. Especially when you were helping with getting her the Hospice care she needed. This was by far the hardest thing I have experienced in life but at the same time you always put a smile on her face even at the worst times. Thanks for being a special person and doctor.
