Lacy was patient, gentle, and kind during such a difficult time.
Lacy came in to help with the delivery of my daughter just as her shift began. We were ready to begin pushing before the doctor on call arrived. She kept me calm and comfortable with her friendly demeanor and conversation, which is what I needed at the time. She was very knowledgeable and I’m confident she could have delivered the baby on her very own if it came down to that! She kept me updated on the doctor’s whereabouts so I didn’t have to ask or wonder. She helped me push as directed by the doctor, until he arrived. She knew I was nervous about having a doctor other than my own, and she calmed my nerves and fears. She was patient, gentle, and kind during such a difficult time. I truly felt like she was an old friend from the start! Not to mention she delivered my baby while being 7+ months pregnant herself! She was a light on such a difficult day, and I’m so thankful for her. She is an exceptional nurse and human.
