Gabriela Gonzalez
I had the need for a birth control method, and I was qualified for a contraception study at this facility. I was nervous about being in a study, but the research staff explained everything clearly. They were always available to answer my questions. I had extra tests as part of the study, but the research team made sure I was comfortable. I'm grateful to have participated and would recommend clinical research to other patients.
I really felt I was in good hands. Participating in this trial was a great decision that benefited me personally while also helping advance hypertension research.
I have been suffering from high blood pressure since several years ago and it has been always very difficult to control. My Cardiologist suggested me to enroll in a new trial for hypertension. I had my doubts at the beggining, but all the staff members were so caring and patient with my questions and concerns, that I ended up trusted them my health. Now I am very thankful for that, because since I started that new drug not only I was helping science to continue advancing, but it was also making my blood pressure finally well controlled.
I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure couple of years ago and since then it's been a struggle to keep up with my daily activities. My cardiologist told me about a new experimental device being tested in a clinical trial for people with heart failure. The study staff took time to explain what was involved and answered all my questions patiently. Through that device, doctors diagnosed me with an arrhythmia and placed on a pacemaker. I am so glad doctors were on top of my results and sent me to the hospital immediately. I am very grateful with this team and with this trial device for saving my life
