Every Story Matters
“My role is important to patients and families because it is my job to get them from one destination to the other in a safe and timely manner. When transporting a patient, I always attempt to make parents as comfortable as possible.”
“I’ve been here for about 23 years and held different administrative assistant positions with different departments. At The Center for Healthy Weight and Nutrition, everyone just really loves kids. We have a real compassion for the patients. For wanting them to live healthier. We have a big celebration every year and it’s neat to see the kids after surgeries and even those who don’t have surgery but have maintained their exercise and dieting habits. To see the positivity and how they view themselves differently is rewarding. And sometimes they get to a healthy weight and don’t need to be here anymore, and that is even better!”
“The relationships one develops with patients and families is the key for me. I’m still amazed that parents trust me to care for their child, after just meeting me for the first time. I’m humbled by their faith and trust. I will sometimes see patients or families I cared for 10, or even 20 years ago. From a surgeon’s perspective, it is remarkable!”
