I worked with Michael as a student nurse. He made a lasting impression on me. The amazing way he cares for his families, his calm & confident demeanor, and team attitude. He is not afraid to question a provider or to be a patient advocate.
Michael is willing to scrub in the operating room, in our unit for emergencies, take difficult assignments, and share his expertise with others. He is an asset to our department.
He is knowledgeable, caring, and funny. He makes other’s feel at ease…especially our families! There is a connection that he makes with others that is truly indescribable…like a loveable teddy bear.
Thank you for the warmth you bring to our unit and to our patients!
From your friends in Maternal Child Health at Kaiser Walnut Creek.
Nomination from Patient:
Michael provided exceptional care by paying attention to even minuscule details, such as cutting the bands extra material to make us more comfortable. We had an extraordinary reaction to the epidural with low blood pressure then heightened heart rate. He grounded the room and helped keep the anesthesiologist calm. He was wonderful to have with us in a time of fear and anxiety. It was Michael that made my experience at Kaiser a positive, memorable experience.
