Rosemary had become a wellness guru among us," Louisa chuckled, "so we won't keep you any longer,Dr. Pierce. Thanks for taking time out of your busy schedule to show us around the hospital, for conducting our check-ups personally, and for helping us interpret the reports. We'll be on our way now."
"Let me walk you out." Dr. Pierce accompanied them to the parking lot, continuing, "I should be thanking you, really. The new medical equipment you've donated will help so many patients. On behalf of everyone here, thank you, and your visit to the hospital for check-ups also promotes the importance of regular health screenings."
As the Collins family's car rolled up, Dr. Pierce opened the door, gesturing for Bernard and Cornelia to climb in first.
"Drop by for some coffee when you have a moment," Bernard invited through the car window, his smile warm and inviting.
