“No words can express how grateful we are. You have given us the greatest gift in the world, our baby girl! We finally found a doctor who listened to us and considered our individual circumstances. From day one we knew you were the doctor for us, and look at the result! Thanks again!”
“Where do I start, there aren’t words to say thanks for the wonderful blessing we have in our new baby girl. To Mickey for always calling me back when I had crazy questions, for encouragement along the way, and for sharing our joy when we were finally pregnant. I remember looking at that board full of baby pictures and knowing one day my baby’s picture would be up there. So here you go. May God bless you all!”
“Words cannot express how thankful we are to you. After trying to have a baby with no success for three years, we were referred to you. I was terrified that you were going to tell us that you couldn’t help. Instead you took care of us. Amazingly, only after seeing you for a few short weeks, we were pregnant. It was so much more than we could have hoped for. It was also a great joy to see how genuinely happy for us you were. We are sending you pictures of our beautiful baby girl, just like we promised. Thank you so very much for helping us have this wonderful little girl. She truly is the best thing to ever happen to us. We will always remember you.”
“Since we are now in the season of Thanksgiving, we wanted to send you this card to let you know how thankful we are to have found such a wonderful physician & staff. There is not a day that goes by that we do not thank God for the miracle you have brought to us. We can’t thank each and every one of you enough for the happiness & joy you have brought into our lives. We also wanted to let you know that we think you have the best and most friendly staff on board. You are all so wonderful & dear to our hearts!”
“You are an amazing man. From the bottom of my heart, I love you to tears. You are so deeply loved by our family that there are hardly words to describe it. We both cannot express it enough and there isn’t a person we don’t tell about you. The impact you have made on us will last a lifetime. We pray for you everyday, first of all, thanking God that he put you in our life, but also that you would continually be blessed because of the blessings you’ve given us. You’ve given us first of all, the gift of our little boy, but in addition, the gift of hope, the gift of faith, and the gift of another child or children in the future….we just know it! You have taken us under your wings in order to journey forward even though it is financially difficult for us right now. The tears you bring to my eyes are of pure humble gratitude and an overwhelming sense of peace in knowing that everything is going to be ok. We cannot thank you enough and could never repay you in everything you’ve so graciously given us. I have never felt this cared for by any physician, but not only that, a friend. What amazes me is how you just know. That says volumes about who you are – you are more than one of St. Louis’ Best Doctors (which of course you are!)- You are in this game WITH us, not just coaching us from the sidelines. You feel what we feel, grieve when we grieve, and the best part – you are overjoyed when we are overjoyed! I will never forget the tears in your eyes when I miscarried and you had to let me know the outcome. But I will also never forget the joy you shared with us when we got pregnant – the pure happiness and celebration in your eyes this time! You, Dr. Witten, will be carried in our hearts forever as the most special man in the world that gave us our family.”
“Thank you all so much for everything you have done for me and my husband. What a journey it has been! We have met so many wonderful people along the way, and learned so much about ourselves. We will never forget that day of our ultrasound last week when Dr. Witten said “it’s twins!” We burst into tears as soon as you guys left the room! I hope you know how thrilled we are! Neither of us are very expressive people in person – but boy our hearts are bursting!!! I’ve just been in shock for days!
Today was a day of mixed emotions for me! I know I must have seemed confused and spaced out! I was happy as could be to see the babies’ heartbeats, yet I was so sad to move on and leave you guys. I’m thrilled we accomplished our goal though…plus some! Dr. Witten, I wish you could just be my OB and that you can take care of me until they are born! You have been so wonderful and caring. You were always willing to answer questions, and you really cared how I was doing. And it meant the world to my husband that you always remembered him and different things about him. Also, many thanks to Mickey and Carolyn for answering my millions of questions and truly caring about me. I was thankful that I didn’t ever have to be afraid to call. I can’t express how great everyone has been.”
Dear Dr. Witten, About six months ago, we were sitting in your exam room, scared but excited to start our journey towards our family. As we stared at the walls filled with pictures, stories and letters from couples that came before us, we both wondered if we’d ever get to write a letter. And now here we are! Blessed. Humbled. Thankful. And most of all, in awe of you and your team. I am certain that I could not have forged ahead over the past six months without your care, your warmth and your heart felt approach. We truly cannot express what an amazing physician and person you are. You have been so kind, patient, funny when we needed it most, and just a joy to work with. As we write this letter, we are giddy with excitement at the thought of meeting our twin babies (the “Twinkies”)
come December. You are the reason we are here, and the one who pulled us through. Thank you from the bottom of our collective heart.
Dear Dr. Witten, Mickey, Carolyn, Chris, and Donna, When we first came to see you, we never thought we would be writing a letter like this. When we read the letters from other patients, we were still skeptical. However, over the course of working with you, our hopes grew. You and your staff consistently provided words of encouragement, timely humor, and much needed compassion. I can’t tell you how grateful we are to you and your staff for making what was a very difficult time into one of hope, and later, joy with the arrival of our daughter! Thank you so much.
Dear Dr. Witten & Staff, I have been meaning to send this for quite some time, but being a mommy is keeping me very busy! I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping us become parents of the most amazing little girl in the world. We could not possibly be more in love with her and I think we enjoy her more and more every day! I know many people experience the joy of parenthood, but somehow I think it is even more special when you have to try so hard to get there. Although we were only patients in your office for a short time, we had an amazing experience with you and your staff. Again, I thank you for being so thorough & kind.
We would like to thank you from the bottom of our heart. You have walked with us through some very difficult trials, but we are even more pleased to celebrate the success of pregnancy with you! Thank you for reminding us to stay hopeful and for always providing hope. We can’t wait to be added to the “Thank you” wall when our baby comes in October. Again, we know words will never be enough, but thank you so much!
Thank you so much for everything that you and your staff did to bring us [our baby]. He is truly extraordinary and we wouldn’t have him without you! Your staff is truly exceptional and always took the time to go above and beyond. And, we truly appreciated the effort and attention that you gave us to make this as painless as possible. Words cannot thank you enough! We truly appreciate it and look forward to many, many years with our tiny miracle.
Thank you so much for helping to make our dreams come true. I only met with Dr. Witten once for an IUI, but that is all it took. I had a wonderful pregnancy and delivery
and now I’m enjoying my beautiful baby boy. My husband and I would love to give our son a sibling and when we are ready to start trying again Dr. Witten will be the first
person we call. Thank you again, and until we meet again…..
