My mom loved her! I felt like I was able to leave when she was here because I knew my mom would not be anxious.
Marisa was my mom's night nurse and my mom had Covid. My mom can be a very difficult patient as she is a retired nurse. She was very compassionate and explained everything she was doing. She was not only compassionate to my mom but to all the family that came in as well. My mom loved her! I felt like I was able to leave when she was here because I knew my mom would not be anxious. She was an excellent nurse and a great asset to your team!

After losing 7 pregnancies, including a second-trimester loss of twins we unexpectedly found ourselves pregnant. Unfortunately, this pregnancy was ectopic. I underwent what was supposed to be a routine procedure to remove my tubes and during the procedure I had a severe cardiac event that left my heart functioning at only 25%. Marisa went above and beyond not only caring for me physically but helping me heal emotionally. She talked to me, and held my hand and her kindness healed me more than any medicine ever could have. Thank you!
