Danielle would always go the extra mile to help me and my family understand what was going on and what to expect going forward in my wife's care.
My wife had a massive heart attack; myself and my family were very scared and confused about all of the things that were happening. Danielle would always go the extra mile to help me and my family understand what was going on and what to expect going forward in my wife's care as my wife went into surgery for a heart pump. Danielle was leaning over my wife to get things ready for surgery when my wife said, "Looks like you're going to give me a kiss." Danielle kissed my wife on the forehead! Talk about compassion. She even called me the day of my wife's heart pump surgery to see if we were coming to the hospital, which I was en route when she called. She gave me some details but mainly wanted me to drive safely and would talk to me when I got to the hospital. Danielle's tireless, devoted, and skilled passion for my wife's well-being made a huge impression on me and my family.
