I was a patient in interventional radiology and nervous because I have a potential line metastasis. I asked Mike if he knew anything about the radiologist injecting medicine into a liver tumor. This was discussed as a treatment option for me by my Doctor. I know Mike was very busy but he took a lot of time to explain this procedure to me. He really helped my anxiety. Mike was excellent in preparing me for my neph tube change. Also, extremely kind and courteous. I have many serious health problems and have dealt with a lot of healthcare professionals. Mike is one of the nicest and caring nurses I have been around. This is especially true from an area like interventional radiology when they are extremely busy with little time for the kind of care Mike gave to me.
