I gave birth to my baby 7 weeks early because I developed a severe case of preeclampsia. I was having trouble communicating with the doctor which aggravated an already stressful situation. Krystle Repichowski stepped in to provide the communication I sought, explaining what was happening and providing me with the information I needed to remain calm. She changed what was a very awkward situation into a positive experience when, at my request, she communicated my distress to the director, allowing him to coordinate for my own OB-GYN coming in to do my C-Section.
I was most impressed by how Krystle handled a difficult situation very diplomatically even though it had the potential to be unpleasant for her. With her reassurance and care, I knew that I was in good hands and she helped me to calm down and give birth to my baby.
