Everyone is polite, professional and very compassionate about their patients. Egan has been coming to my home once a week for the last five weeks and come next week for my last visit I’m gonna be sad to say goodbye. Amanda and Todd has been awesome since day one understanding my anxiety and talking me through everything. Amanda has went above and beyond from answering my texts and calls during working hours and after with concerns I had with my picc line. I could not ask for better nurses from Egan. You all are doing a wonderful job and would recommend Egan to any of my family and friends.
