Not offended in the least. People just have a tendency to throw out the widespread rumor that, "Berger kills people." What you'll find though, is that most people who spew those comments: 1. Have never been a patient there, or, 2. They stopped in for pain meds, and were shown the door. In either case, it's people just running their mouth with absolutely nothing to back it up.
Berger is exactly what it's supposed to be - a mid level facility. It'll probably never be a Grant or Riverside, or the like, because it's sandwiched right between Chillicothe (Adena), and Columbus. There's no need or room for Berger to be a top tier hospital.
I've heard, more often that not, that our actual patients (the sick ones, not the frequent flyers) prefer Berger over the larger hospitals because of the quality of care they receive.
