Kristen Kirkpatrick is a wonderful person and nurse. She is great at her job and is a pleasant person. One can feel the smile in her voice. Such a hard-working nurse, yet she never shows how tired or upset a job can make a person. As a matter of fact, she doesn't act like it is a job. She enjoys all she does. Meritus Medical Center and its patients are blessed by her every day. I have been hospitalized several times over the last 3 years, yet she is the first nurse I have watched and had the privilege of knowing. We are all for the better. She has truly answered her calling. Thank you!
