Accomplishments

Regardless of what each day brings, Andy comes in with a smile on his face and engages with every person he passes. Andy treats his patients as if they are old friends, talking to them about their lives and sharing stories. Andy goes above and beyond the requirements of therapy – and it is evident that he doesn't come in to check a box, he comes in with clear intentions to change someone's life for the better. Andy's interpersonal skills are exceptional, and he is truly gifted in situations that require patience, empathy and motivation. When I think of a healthcare professional that thinks and acts altruistically, I think of Andy, and so does everyone else at UC. The quality of care at Brooks is due to the quality of the people on the team, and Andy is the best of the best



Every year, Brooks recognizes stand-out employees for their ability to go above and beyond in their job role and live out our mission, vision and values to our patients, family members and fellow employees.
