Sara was awesome! Compassionate and caring is an understatement! I was there for a week, induced with pre-eclampsia and high blood pressure with my first child. I was overwhelmed, terrified and so stressed! The situation was more than I could take. I eventually had to get a c-section on my 4th day in. I was emotionally drained! After my c-section, my son was taken to the NICU where he spent the first 13 days of his life. Talk about an emotional 2 weeks!

Point is Sara is more than a nurse, she's human! She understood my worries and concerns. She made me feel heard. She made me feel so comfortable and was explanatory of everything that was going on with me and my child! Sara gave me such good care. All my nurses were great but not like Sara! I requested her for my c-section because I wanted someone who genuinely made me feel safe. Someone who was going to make me feel like everything was going to be okay! Even though by chance I got her that morning I was ecstatic. As I expected she met every expectation! Truly, Sara is a DAISY Nurse to be so compassionate at your job is one thing but to give 100% of yourself with love and understanding, now that's something!

Thank you, Sara, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
