Speaking from personal experience gained as a colleague and as a family member of a patient involved in a domestic violence relationship, the nominator described Anne as someone who truly "speaks from the heart," saying, "I cannot tell you how professional, caring and informative Anne is."

The nominator emphasized that "Anne truly exemplifies everything that is deserving of the DAISY Award," including clinical excellence, patient-centered care, teamwork, professionalism, kindness and compassion -- to patients and family alike.
