Kirstin provided the most amazing care I could have ever imagined. She was with me from the beginning of my labor journey and was nothing short of amazing. She made sure I was comfortable and suggested things to help my labor move smoothly. She is an amazing, caring, and special nurse who made me feel so much better during my delivery and labor. She encouraged me not to give up and reassured me that I was doing a great job. She made sure I knew I was doing all I could! Emotionally I felt a great connection with her and she made sure I never gave up. There are no words to describe how amazing my experience here with her has been. She is such an amazing nurse.

She provided exceptional service when we first arrived until she left her shift, and even more when she came back on the night shift. Super compassionate and gave the highest level of care to my wife and son. She was so inspirational when my wife had to have a C-section and reassured her that she did everything she could do and that she should not feel defeated but proud to know she did everything she could, but our birth plan had to change for a good reason. Kirstin was as extraordinary of a nurse as I could have asked for my wife! Everyone here was A+ but she just knew the right things to say in a difficult moment. Thank you, Kirstin!
