Tiffany saved me. And saved our family. When my partner of over 30 years became ill suddenly, and hospitalized, I struggled to manage the emotional, psychological and physical toll. My stress level was so high that my body and mind were giving out. Trying to navigate the mental health system was very challenging. I was simultaneously trying to care for, and protect our son, be the sole decision maker on numerous fronts AND be the person in charge of relaying complicated and sensitive information to the rest of our family, close friends and my partner’s workplace. I was overwhelmed and afraid. Then a friend connected me with Tiffany. I texted her and within the hour she responded to me from her vacation in Europe. She spent over an hour with me on the phone. She listened. She supported me. She said all the right things to help me stay in the moment and calm my nervous system. She explained the medical system and what was happening to my partner in a way I could understand and that helped me be less afraid. She helped me make a plan for each day with a short mantra that helped me navigate the next 24 hours.

 

For the next 6 weeks Tiffany became a sort of lifeline for me and for our family. She always responded with care and compassion. With wisdom and encouragement. With calm and concern. At first, I was in touch with her quite a bit. Tiffany even suggested we have a standing time every day at 2:00pm if I needed to check in with her. As my partner’s condition improved and I called upon Tiffany less, she circled back to check in with me. She even provided us with referrals to top-notch healthcare providers.

 

Tiffany cared for me. And that enabled me to care for myself, my partner and our loved ones. I can honestly say, I don’t know how I would have made it through the past two months without her. Jen

I had faith in my surgeon's ability to take my uterus out, and understood that medically speaking, it made sense. But that doesn't mean I wasn't terrified! Having Tiffany in my corner made the whole experience so much better. Things that would have filled me with fear and anxiety, like the actual morning of the procedure, were almost fun thanks to her. It didn't occur to me to involve her in my pre-op appointment but she suggested it and I'm so grateful she did. Wow, did that appointment freak me out! Luckily Tiffany was there to put it all in perspective. Tiffany understands the whole picture, from the clinical/scientific stuff to what's needed on a social/emotional level. It's everything that the patient experience today typically lacks. Western medicine is so evidence-based, which is great, but I always end up leaving my doctor's office feeling like another statistic. Tiffany makes it personal. She customized the experience so that I had all the support I needed and wanted, from the pre-op appointment through recovery. I will definitely hire Tiffany again, if I ever need another surgery.— eileen f
