Dr. G exemplified patience, bedside manner, clear communication and how that affects a client and healthcare worker relationship. I wish I could articulate better how much I appreciated his help. From a much younger/less experienced healthcare worker: thank you for your thorough care and being the type of professional I strive to be like.
