Thank you letter 

May 15 2012

Dear Blandly Leonard and Alexander G.

With all my admiration, I thank you so much for being such great supervisors. I really enjoyed this internship because it was my first time to work with professionals and get the experience working with patients. It was pleasure to work in the volunteer department because they gave the opportunity to explore the life of physical therapists and people who dedicate their time to help others.  In the physical therapy department, I feel like I’m with my basketball team because Alex has a sense humor and empathy.  Blandly, you are a great teacher that allowed me to utilize my mind and to be thoughtful. I really admired the way you taught me the important factors for any person who wants to become a therapist. It’s important to have a strong personality and control your feelings and be compassionate and love to help people. 

I am thankful to you blandly and Alex.  Both of you were very patient with me the first days of internship. For me it was really hard to work with professional people and be on time.  I had to work hard to try understand you sometimes because I am stilling learning English as my second language.  I have been here just two years and I think I improved English at my internship. Working at Maimonides helped me get better and also learn new words and have more knowledge about medicine. It was a really good experience during this internship because I like how you both introduced me to the rest of the employees in the hospital. You made me feel comfortable and to be part of a team. 

I am really amazed by the way Maimonides Medical Center serves people with respect, integrity, compassion, all proving better health for the patients. I really appreciate the opportunity you gave me to volunteer in the Physical Therapist department. Having a chance to interact with patients and listening to them touched me and made me a better communicator and helped me become a better person and learn important factors to be involved in a hospital.

I am really proud to have the opportunity to intern with you.  Both of you are the best supervisors I have ever had during my first internship of my life. I will miss you guys a lot. Take care.   

Sincerely,
 

Michelle Steffy  Candelo
