Rachel leads by example. She is always professional and is a very good role model for the junior residents and medical students. Patients and their families only have positive things to say about her care and her bedside manner. She is also the consummate team player, always willing to help others and do what it is needed.

On a personal level, Dr. Flores is very likable, outgoing with a keen sense of humor. She speaks often and proudly of being a devoted wife, mother of four and family provider along with her husband. Most surgeons in training would not be able to juggle the demands of such a family during residency training. Dr. Flores, however has simply excelled. Her family provides her a foundation of stability and purpose, continually driving her to succeed and work with a sense of purpose and commitment. [Daniel M. Caruso, MD, FACS]

Jarvis emulates poise, maturity and a genuine desire to be a competent, capable physician. He truly takes feedback to heart and works hard to address any areas of weakness. He is his own worst critic; however, quickly turns his ‘less than perfect’ moments into true learning opportunities. While he is human and makes mistakes, his character and integrity are sound. He has demonstrated a strong sense of responsibility and dedication to his patients, his colleagues and his family. I wish all of my residents had the insight and courage to look within that Jarvis does.
