"Just wanted to personally thank you for the presentation to our residents last week.  It was exactly what we were hoping it would be-positive and relevant to where they are in their own health care.  You did a wonderful job. Education is key. "

"Thank you for coming yesterday and presenting a very important topic to our residents. It was a small but personal group of residents who were eager to enhance their understanding of Diabetes. I’ve heard many compliments about the presentation and how they look forward to more information in the future. We truly appreciate you taking time to come and visit us and increase our awareness of Diabetes.
I look forward to working with both of you again."
