Meet Gabriel Addow, a Patient Care Technician for our Clinical Support Staff at UMass Memorial Medical Center.
"I've always felt drawn to aiding others in their most vulnerable moments. Every day, I have the chance to make a significant impact on the lives of patients and their families, whether by delivering comfort, resolving problems, or providing support at tough times. The mix of science, compassion, and cooperation inspired me to pursue this path.
My favorite aspect of my profession is developing relationships with patients and colleagues. I enjoy being a member of a team that works together to achieve a common goal: giving the best possible care. It is extremely fulfilling to see a patient improve or simply know that I contributed to making their experience slightly better.
One of the most unforgettable experiences of my career was caring for a patient who endured great hurdles but eventually reached a positive outcome. Being a part of that journey and seeing the strength of the patient, their family, and our care team reminded me why I selected this profession.
