May 2016 Honoree
heather coelho, RN
In nominating Heather for this honor, many patients noted common themes such as her compassion, calmness and professionalism. One patient wrote, "Heather always checked with my provider and/or surgeon when I had questions that were beyond her realm of expertise. She made me feel like I was her only patient, which I knew I wasn't. I respect and trust her advice because I know she is knowledgeable and has my best interests at heart."
Another patient recalled a time when Heather went above and beyond to get her MRI results after many anxiety-filled days of waiting to hear back. "Had she not been so caring and proactive, I would have probably had to wait several more trying days for results," the patient said. "Heather showed tremendous compassion towards my plight, and it helped me enormously!"

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