Kristine Y Dowden, RN

Kristine went above and beyond during my labor, making a first-time mom and dad feel relaxed and calm during a rather scary delivery. During labor, our son's heart rate kept dropping; Kristine stayed with us the whole time and remained calm especially during a stressful situation. She was always sure to explain everything and what was happening, she was quick to call for help to get the doctor when position changes weren't helping the baby's heart rate. She went above and beyond during our delivery, which ended in an emergency C-section, and even during our postpartum stay by coming over to visit us and check-in after her shift. I can truly say this nurse made a scary situation less scary for me and my husband. We continue to tell people what a wonderful nurse she was and how in our opinion, she played a major role in our little boy arriving safely into the world. Thank you again for being a Wonderful L&D nurse - you were amazing!
