I came in because I am an alcoholic and was in withdrawal. Some medical professionals might not feel much empathy for my situation, but Christina not only offered me the utmost care and empathy, but she also took her time to find out why I was there and who I was. She reminded me multiple times that I had many reasons to get well . . . also to tell me she was thinking of my well-being. She is the definition of a truly compassionate person.
