Care Compliments

I want to thank Sharif for his wonderful sense of humor, kindness and real appreciation for what it feels like to be a patient. Coming into the cast room at Orthopedics while you are in pain and worried is very daunting. Sharif's calm, confident and kind nature set me at ease and made things so much easier. He narrated everything he was doing and provided me with practical guidance for living with a cast. He treated everyone there with respect and humor while handling a rather stressful situation.

I cannot thank Dr. Paul Krogstad enough for the care he provided to my son. He went above and beyond to advocate for my son, he ensured my son got the proper referrals he needed for his condition, even if that meant personally calling other clinics to schedule appointments. Dr. Krogstad personally called our pediatrician to provide her education about cCMV; she was blown away that he took the time to call and discuss my son's case and the amount of knowledge he shared with her.
Dr. Krogstad always took time to answer ALL questions at each appointment, he would personally call me to review lab results (even on weekends), he always responded quickly to MyChart Messages, and above all, showed a genuine interest in my son's care.
Dr. Krogstad is an incredible physician, and I am so thankful for him and the care he has provided my son.

Last week I had a terrible migraine attack and required a same day urgent appointment with a provider. Dr. Katherine Pang had an availability for me to come in. I am grateful she did as she made sure I was well taken care of. I want to thank her for caring for me and making sure I got the treatment I needed. She showed genuine concern and care. I had to have the exam room lights off during the visit as I had severe photophobia and she conducted the consultation with just the light from the computer screen on so that I would not be in pain from the room lights. She made sure to come check on me during my infusion to make sure I was feeling better. I am so grateful she was so kind as I was in so much pain. I felt listen to by her and knew I would be in good hands. I want to thank her for being so great to me that day.

Last week I came in to the clinic for a same day urgent appointment for an awful migraine I was having. Martin was the MA that roomed me. I want to compliment him for being so kind, patient and understanding. I was in terrible pain and had to get an EKG at the time and he was gentle and professional and made sure that I was not uncomfortable. Thank you Martin for making my visit go well.

I want to thank Gena for being such a wonderful and kind RN. I had to go to the clinic unexpectedly for a monstrous migraine. I was miserable that day and in so much pain. She was wonderful! She placed my IV and gave me my meds. She was kind and patient. She made me feel safe and welcomed. and even though I was same day appointment with an urgent need for care she gave me her full attention. I am so thankful she cared for me while I was feeling so bad that day.

I would like to sincerely think Amber in Dr. Gregory Lam's office for assistance with a prescription not covered by insurance. She helped me set up GoodRx and a location. Above and beyond! We need more Amber's. I am a retired physician and know the meaning and value of help navigating a horribly complicated healthcare system.

Dr. Brandon Endo saw me when I came in around Christmas. He took good care of me during my visit. He came by a few times to talk me through my situation very clearly and with great empathy. He answered all the questions I could muster and really has a great medical authority. So nice, very caring. I extend my thanks.

Matthew was the second nurse attending to me during my visit just prior to Christmas. He was awesome, and I appreciated his detailed care. He really knows his stuff and has a very calming presence. UCLA is lucky to have him on board. Many thanks to him!

Reid was my main nurse during my visit just before the Christmas holiday. He was fantastic. Super caring and so knowledgeable. He really put me at ease and was thorough in his care. A great asset to your team. I send my thanks his way.

Maricor has been the best nurse. She takes time to talk to me and listen to my needs, rather than just to simply "check the boxes". Maricor is very compassionate and kind. I was having a terrible day today and she was very supportive.

Marco served as a Care Partner for my significant other during her time within the unit. He was extremely helpful, always had a positive attitude and constantly found ways to make himself available even when he was busy. He literally helped get her off of her feet and moving in the right direction. We are eternally grateful for his commitment to care.

Lauren served within the Surgical Lounge and was diligent in keeping me up to date with the progress of my significant other's surgery while I waited on the ground level with her parents (since only one visitor is allowed inside of the surgical lounge at a time). Thank you Lauren!
