I would like to thank Clarissa Martinez for her service and hospitality while my son was hospitalized. She showed nothing but compassion and care during a difficult time of confusion due to no knowledge of what the diagnosis was at that moment. I would also love to tell Clarissa thank you for believing in me as a parent, especially when I said that my child's behavior was odd! My doctor at the time did not believe certain tests needed to be performed, however, Clarissa Martinez alarmed the physician that my child's behavior was more serious than what was seen on the surface. Thanks to Clarissa's persistence the correct test was performed and my son is now on his way to a full recovery. I am grateful for nurses like Clarissa Martinez because they are the backbone of the medical world.
