“What is the most rewarding part of your job? 
Making people’s lives better! Everyone in this world touches lives in some form or another whether it is consciously or unconsciously and either for the good or for the bad. The most rewarding aspect of my job is looking back each day and seeing the lives of patients, of people that I have touched each day, and to be able to go to bed each night knowing that it was for the good.”
