Ashleigh Whetsell, RN
Oncology

“Ashleigh exceeds all expectations beyond belief. She returned from maternity leave and didn’t miss a beat getting back into work while also taking me in to train. Not only is she an extremely knowledgeable and skillful nurse, but she is also so kind, encouraging, helpful and is an extraordinary educator. She is truly an irreplaceable asset to the team.”

Tevan Chu, RN
Pediatrics

“We had a patient admitted to Pediatrics who did not have any personal belongings due to their social situation. Tevan graciously went out of his way after working a night shift to run to the store to ensure this patient had several comfortable sets of clothes and their favorite snacks. Tevan cares so much about his patients and goes above and beyond the standard of care.”
