Columbus Regional Hospital: "Dr.John Gall, really is a blessing from God! I had to come into the emergency room January 17th and the 16th for withdrawals from my pain medicine that I've been on for 14 years my doctor had been out of town forgot to refill my medicine and I am fully disabled need neck and back surgery and that man helped me he could have just told me he wouldn't go do nothing about it but he really helped me and more than likely honestly I believe I think he saved my life because I felt like I was dying we need more caring doctors like that man and y'all need to give him a raise.
