My labor experience was far from what I envisioned for myself. I didn't progress quickly or naturally. I was in excruciating pain. My epidural didn't distribute evenly, so my pain was localized to one side. If Tonya had not been the amazing nurse she is, I would not have survived that. She held me during the epidural, held my hands during contractions, put my hair up, prioritized me, and made sure I felt safe and never alone the entire time. I am grateful for the care I received from her and will be having my next baby here 100% because of her. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It meant the world to me.

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