January 2026 Honoree
Julia Benkandil, BSN, RN
Julia treated my father with so much respect and courtesy. She was very flexible and patient. Meeting her after surgery comforted me; he was in good hands when I had to go home. She also had excellent bedside manners and comforted my dad, even with a language barrier. She took her time to understand what he was trying to communicate to her and even tried to make conversation with him. I appreciate her for all that she has done. She was extremely passionate, professional, and hard-working to provide the best care possible. I look forward to seeing her again for his next surgery.
Thank you, Julia, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
