“We share the same belief and hope in the future of our patients – many of whom are incredibly disadvantaged and have faced really difficult lives. It’s the fact that you can make such a meaningful difference that makes this work so powerful.

I absolutely love it. I’ve been doing this for six and a half years now, and honestly, I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.”
