"It is without reservation that I recommend "Cough-Buddy" to thoracic and cardiovascular surgeons who are interested in an alternative to the conventional bed pillow for post-operative coughing and deep-breathing exercises. It still amazes me after using the bear for eleven years on over 5,000 patients, that it offers not only great clinical results but also great psychological support."

"The "Cough-Buddy" has become an instant success in my practice of general surgery. The patients are excited to receive their "gifts" and they use them very effectively. Now all the nurses want them too! I also have to inform you that you have now committed me to ordering teddy bears for my patients for life. Your product has certainly caught on well to this hospital and has been warmly received by all. Again my thanks."
Charles F. Haeussner, M.D.

"I am please to write this letter of support for the use of the Cough-Buddy, Teddy-Tech bears as an adjunct to rapid recovery from congenital cardiac operations. We have now used the bears in our critical pathway methodology to help indoctrinate the patient and family as to our post-operative care methods. The bears have helped tremendously in the pulmonary rehabilitation program, so critical to an accelerated recovery and early discharge.""
"The children enjoy the bears and work well with them and the families see them as a memento of a very important experience. But most importantly, they significantly improve post-operative management. I strongly recommend their use in pediatric and congenital cardiac surgery and have found them an exceptional tool in decreasing the length of hospital stay.""
Kevin Turley, M.D.
Chief, Pediatric Cardiovascular Surgeryy

The teddy bears have been a HUGE hit with our patients. Both surgeons believe there is a real positive impact on patients emotionally, not just as an aid in coughing. Thanks and keep them coming!
