The WIHS Woman

HERE'S WHAT YOU HAD TO SAY
Comments from the Clients

Once again we are pleased to bring you the feedback that we have gotten from all of you about the study over the last few months.  This is what you had to say about the study.  None of your words have been changed.  Can you find your quote?

I don't have anything negative to say.  Donna and Maribel are so pleasant to talk to.  Sometimes I'm here 30 minutes or longer, because we get off the track with my personal life.  I'm so impressed that they allow me to bend their ears.  And they give me their honest thoughts and not what they may feel I want to hear.  "L"

Maribel is a nice person and Donna is excellent and respectful.  The fanny pack I got was nice for being on time.

I have not had problems with the way the WIHS program is going now and before.  I appreciate everything that the WIHS program has to offer.  I would like to see the program take on more women for the study.

I really love the study.  Donna is really good at what she does.  She goes over and beyond the call of duty.

As a working participant I think the best thing you can do to improve the study for me is to have some evening appointments.  I like the study because it allows me to monitor my health without compromising my medical privacy.  Keep up the good work but try to add a few evenings.

I feel that it's a very nice study.  Donna and all the other ladies are very nice and understanding and they take out a lot of their time to help the women of the study.  RC

I like you a lot.  You are a very nice person.  I love to hear you talk.  You have a sweet voice and I also think you are so cute.

The study has been positive for me.  It enables my life to feel better about myself.  I know that this study does more than my clinic.  Therefore, I can relax and enjoy life better.  I know that if anything is wrong, they will find it.  Yours truly…

Yes, my name is DH.  I have been in this women's study for the last 3 years.  I really think the staff is wonderful people.  They are very respectable women and caring especially Donna and Maribel.  I just love them so much.  They even care about me in my recovery.  They try to keep me on my toes.  I wouldn't want to give myself to any other research.  WIHS/BARCWA are very special people in my life today.  Keep inspiring the women and keep up the good work.  I love you all.  Sincerely…R

Donna, yes, she's the most wonderful lady to be a client of.  It really can't get any better.  And may I say "they just don't come any better nowadays, in any and every way a job can be performed.  Thank you…DW

I love Donna, Debra, and Maribel and the entire WIHS staff at Highland.  I enjoy the study and have learned quite a lot.  I just wish there weren't as many questions.

One time I went to the WIHS and they needed to draw blood, but my veins are so shot, I need a doctor to draw it.  They tried to find one but couldn't until 2:00 PM.  The nurse tried and it was funny because every vein she found would collapse or burst.
