I had the absolute pleasure of being cared for by Adrien, and he truly made my surgical experience memorable in the best way possible. Adrien strikes a perfect balance between being seasoned and skilled while maintaining a lighthearted and fun demeanor that instantly puts you at ease.

From the moment he introduced himself, his warmth and humor were infectious. Even while performing tasks that could be uncomfortable, like placing my IV, Adrien managed to make me laugh, turning a potentially stressful situation into a surprisingly enjoyable one. His ability to connect with patients on a personal level while demonstrating his expertise is truly remarkable.

Adrien's spirit didn't just brighten my day; it illuminated the entire 200 Peri-Op area.

Teresa: Friendly and Thorough

I had the privilege of being cared for by Teresa, a perioperative nurse practitioner at Kaiser Santa Clara, and her exceptional care left a lasting impression on me. Teresa's warmth and professionalism were evident from the moment we met, and her friendly demeanor immediately made me feel comfortable and cared for.

What stood out most was how thorough she was in her approach. Teresa took the time to carefully explain every aspect of my preoperative care, ensuring I fully understood what to expect and honored my personal wishes of not accepting donor blood/fluids in the event of an emergency. Her attention to detail and willingness to answer all my questions demonstrated her dedication to providing top-notch patient care.

I also learned that Teresa used to be a traveling nurse, which I found incredibly inspiring. Her diverse background and wealth of experience were evident in the confidence and expertise she brought to her role. Teresa embodies the perfect combination of knowledge, compassion, and kindness.

I feel lucky to have had her as part of my care team, and I deeply admire her dedication to her profession. Thank you, Teresa, for making my experience so positive!
