Gabriel treated me with such respect. Me, an 80-year-old bald lady with ovarian cancer. He connected with me and my family on all levels; taking time with the simplest questions to the more complicated. He explained what was going on with my heart. Even drawing pictures for more clarity. I felt safe and comfortable with this very young man, to the point I had him help me with the hospital nightgown ties. Not like me! I would usually wait for family or a woman nurse. He heard me. Always listening with compassion. Making eye contact so I knew he was listening. He would sit when there was an empty chair. Maybe he couldn't stay long, but I knew he was preparing to hear me.
Gabriel is an incredible young man. He is extremely compassionate. Whatever he chooses, he will be most successful.

Thank you, Gabriel, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
