From her nomination:
“Andrea has continued to provide valuable continuity for her patients for more than 15 years. She shows her dedication and love for oncology patients daily. She is truly talented in displaying compassion for her patients as well as educating them on their disease and treatment. Andrea takes that little extra step that makes patients (especially oncology patients) feel comfortable and at ease with their often scary diagnosis. She is a role model; she makes everyone around her better. Andrea consistently exhibits professionalism, humility, and selflessness. She works seamlessly with six providers and this is clearly an example of ‘excellence beyond the norm.’”
