Susie Champion

EVS

Susie went out of her way to gift balloons and a copy of Our Daily Bread to a struggling patient on his birthday. The patient responded appreciatively with a thank you card, letting her know that her gift and gentle affirmations inspired him to attend church and receive the devotional. Susie is a valuable and loved member of our UMC family.

Shawn Klapproth, MD

Dr. Klapproth regularly takes extra time at the bedside with his patients, talking to them during rounding. We commend Dr. Klapproth for helping to make patients feel valued and listened to. 5 East, especially, appreciates Dr. Klapproth for his time, patience, and the courtesy he shows staff and patients.

Nimesh Adhikari, MD

TTUHSC, Division of Hematology & Oncology

Dr. Adhikari went above and beyond the call of duty. He carefully explained how a recent patient’s treatment was going to work so they could clearly understand it. He even assisted the patient with other personal challenges, showing the difference our providers can make. We thank Dr. Adhikari for being so thorough in easing our patients’ hearts.
