Elise is the sweetest, most kind and caring nurse I've ever had. She is always asking if I ever need anything at all. She comes by often to make sure I'm comfortable. She chose the perfect profession and she is always happy and upbeat when she sees me.
She is one of the nurses I use to insert my IV for the Entyvin I take. She does a great job! She treats every patient as if they are her best friend, and she's known them forever.
I look forward to seeing her each time I need an infusion. She's always ready with a big smile and warm demeanor.

I have a need for frequent transfusions of platelets and blood (very low platelet counts and low hemoglobin). Chemo treatments do not seem to bring about the desired outcome. Looking forward is not a pleasant thought.
Elise is an expert and uplifting your outlook! She is always nice, cheerful, and works hard at making you feel good. She engages in topics of conversation that are of wide and varied interest. Dwelling on my disease is not her style.
As for performing her professional duties, she is the best:
Best at inserting the IV (1st attempt and virtually pain-free)
Very attending to each of her multiple patients receiving some sort of infusion.
Quick to address any issue arising during the procedure.
Offers snacks and drinks especially when long sessions are needed.
She is especially nice to any member of my family that sometimes accompanies me to my sessions.
Always cheerful and genuinely happy for me when bloodwork shows a treatment is unnecessary.
All around very professional and very pleasant in her interface with a patient whose future is clouded in uncertainty. This is very appreciated.
Elise has great skills and a personality that is appreciated by the patients under her care!
