Her ability to connect on both a professional and personal level makes me feel cared for as a whole person, not just a patient.
From my very first day, Katrina could immediately sense my fears and anxieties. She took the time to explain every procedure thoroughly before moving forward, never rushing and always making sure I understood what was happening. That simple act of patience and reassurance made a world of difference for me during an overwhelming time.
Katrina’s warmth shines through in everything she does. She greets me each visit with a cheerful “good morning” and a smile that instantly lifts my spirits. She doesn’t just check in about my treatment, she asks about my weekend, my family, and how I’m truly doing. Her ability to connect on both a professional and personal level makes me feel cared for as a whole person, not just a patient.
What I admire most is how Katrina consistently goes the extra mile. Whether it’s adjusting things to make me more comfortable, anticipating my needs before I even voice them, or offering words of encouragement on difficult days, she has a gift for making patients feel safe, supported, and seen. Her bedside manner reflects genuine compassion, empathy, and dedication to her patients’ well-being.
Katrina is more than a skilled infusion nurse-she is a source of comfort and strength. She turns what could be a frightening experience into one where I feel cared for and at ease. I am deeply grateful for her kindness, professionalism, and unwavering support.
