I'm sorry you had a bad experience at Duke. You do realize that Duke is one of the best hospitals in the world right? It does not it mean we're perfect, I worked at UNC and have worked at Duke now for 16 years, I'd put my life in the hands of both hospitals and be comfortable.
Even with the shootings in news, I feel perfectly safe being in 99% of the city. I am also safe in that 1%, I just know when to go there. Durham such a cesspool that property value is rising 300% downtown, and it's consistently voted one of the best places to work.
Like the T-shirt says, "I would rather die of gunshot and Durham than boredom in Cary."
The person I took to Duke used to work there and later at the VA. I'm sure the care there is great. I worked on the Medical Pavilion and the Cancer Cntr projects. The other day was the first time I 've actually been inside any part of the facility after it became operational. Like I said above, the people who work there that I came in contact with who were not doctors or nurses have a lot to learn about politness, compassion and just general human decency. I think you know what I am talking about. And then last night a woman's car got ventilated right there in front of the VA. I'll take my chances somewhere else.
