Philosophy

“I approach life as a blessing.  I am blessed to be able to come to a hospital that I respect and does wonderful works.  I am blessed to work with patients and their families who wish to not only get well but wish their co-patients roaming the hallways also to get well.  I am blessed to work with staff members that are second to none.”
