Greg never hesitated and was confident in what he was doing. It seemed he had a plan for my day even before I was fully awake.
My wife and I knew when we met him, that I was under good care. Greg worked at a level that I would consider to be 110%, all the time. He always arrived in my room with a fresh, welcoming attitude. He never hesitated and was confident in what he was doing. It seemed he had a plan for my day even before I was fully awake. If I hadn’t slept well, was in more pain than usual, or my wound was bleeding, Greg would take command of the situation and make sure that I had some undisturbed time to rest or nap. He would always let us know when things were done and when he would be in next, to check on me. Everything done to me was always explained and my questions were happily answered, and he didn’t use any fancy medical terms that we could not understand. Overall, Greg was very attentive to both our needs, as my wife spent 8 hours per day with me. He always made sure that we had what we needed. Sometimes Greg even made me feel a little bit at home by sharing in a conversation and including small bits of his life outside of the hospital. He exhibited many important traits including mind (knowledge), body (skilled care), and spirit (making my hospital stay as comfortable as possible). We will always be grateful for him. Thanks, Greg!
