Marina went above and beyond to take care of my dad. She noticed when medications were affecting him and contacted the doctors. She kept us informed of my dad‘s progress and how he was doing. She was always kind, patient, helpful, caring and treated my dad like he was part of her family. Marina was wonderful, and we were blessed to have her for several days. Marina is a blessing to have taken care of my dad. Marina was also kind and caring to his family members, even more so than other nurses on this floor. Marina should be recognized for her outstanding way. She treats my dad and her amazing professionalism as well as her beautiful kindness.

Marina was my husband‘s nurse first before and after his surgery, and as his spouse, I couldn’t have been happier. Marina was not only a great nurse, but her knowledge and compassion were beyond measure. Marina always took the time to ask how both of us were doing. Not just the patient to see what she could do or get for us. Her attention to detail was amazing, and she always made sure that we understood why a medication or procedure was needed. Marina always came to my husband‘s room with a smile on her face, no matter what, and we knew that we were in good hands. I have been around the hospital a lot due to my own mother‘s history, and I have never seen or met a more caring and intelligent nurse than Marina. ABMC is very lucky to have her under staff, and we are extremely grateful that she has been my husband‘s nurse several times.
