Everyone in our department knows that Dave can solve any problem. From my very first day working with him, he’s taught me something new every day. I look forward to working with him because he makes me feel like we can tackle anything that comes our way. He’s kind, an excellent teacher, and incredibly knowledgeable.

During the EPIC go-live, Dave and I were responsible for managing the front desk. Dave’s efficiency was remarkable, often prompting our EPIC specialist to seek his assistance in resolving issues. He ensured that all questions were addressed and facilitated a seamless go-live process. When distressed patients or family members contact us seeking to reach a surgeon, Dave consistently demonstrates exceptional kindness and respect towards both patients and their families, regardless of their demeanor. He de-escalates challenging situations, ensuring that emotions remain calm, and guarantees that patients, families, and staff all feel well cared for. During traumas, Dave maintains composure and ensures that we all feel confident in our actions. Dave will always encourage you to acquire new skills to enhance your performance and ensure smooth operations in the operating room.
