I am honored to recognize Maribel for the DAISY Award for the extraordinary care and compassion provided. Inviting a healthcare professional into one’s home requires a great deal of trust, and Maribel consistently goes above and beyond to honor that trust.

From the very first visit, Maribel demonstrated not only clinical excellence but also genuine kindness, patience, and respect for both the patient and their family. She has an exceptional ability to make complex infusion treatments feel manageable and far less intimidating, consistently demonstrating empathy and humanity in every interaction.

Maribel consistently demonstrates empathy and humanity in every interaction. Her dedication extends far beyond scheduled visits, routinely checking in after hours, coordinating closely with physicians, identifying potential complications early, and traveling extensively to ensure patients — including some of our most vulnerable pediatric patients — receive the care they need. These actions reflect a deep commitment to patient safety, well-being, and continuity of care.
