Mike was nominated by the wife of a patient who was able to relax and feel at ease with the care he provided. Mike displayed true professionalism and never wavered no matter how many times he was needed. His patient was grateful for his time and ability to help her work through her pain and make her feel better. Mike encouraged his patient to get up and walk and he made time for her no matter what was happening. Mike's patient did not get to see him and thank him before she left but wanted him to know his outstanding care and reassurance made such a difference in her recovery. She is forever thankful for Mike.
