"Mindy Spigel is a talented speaker with exceptional knowledge on patient care. Mindy has the ability to convey complicated information in an easy-to-understand manner. Her teambuilding sessions and workshops on enhancing communication skills have been of great value to school nurses across the San Antonio area. I am excited Mindy will continue to share her knowledge through the release of her new book."

"Brief and brilliant, this work provides so many “gold nuggets” on how to make the patient experience special.

The practical advice and real-life stories will help the reader easily translate these pearls of wisdom to executable actions. The winners…your patients, their families, associates, physicians, and the honorable tradition of compassionate healthcare."

"Mindy Spigel’s work is a brilliant reminder to all healthcare providers that the work we do on a daily basis can possibly be the day that forever marks the life of the patient in our care. Our routine procedures, IV starts, delivery of a diagnosis, surgery performed, or even admitting process can be traumatizing and life changing for some patients. Patients enter into a world so unfamiliar to them, yet so comfortable for us – yet we have a tendency to lose sight of that. Mindy’s empathetic view of the patient experience through the eyes of both patient and family is a must-read for all who are privileged enough to deliver care. It is with great hope that those who read There’s a Snake on My Head! will never see a patient the same way. Bravo, Mindy Spigel!"

"It’s refreshing to read a book that not only inspires the care team to identify and address patient fears, but also helps caregivers acknowledge their own fears and understand how this impacts the patients, with actionable takeaways on how to address it.

This book is an inspiring read, filled with stories and real-life examples. It is as authentic as Mindy Spigel herself. It’s a must-read!"
