My mother went into the emergency room with a severe headache and vomiting. Joann immediately recognized her pupils were different sizes and quickly acted by notifying the doctor who ordered a CT scan to find a subarachnoid hemorrhage. Because of Joann acting quickly, my mother was able to get the medication to stop the bleeding on her brain. I am so grateful to Joann Burks for saving my mother’s life.

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