"Dearest Dale, All over the world, your love for Justin burns brightly and fills hearts and lives with hope for a safer future. Our thoughts and love are with you. Arohanui." ~ Marie Bismark MD, JD
“Dale is an inspired speaker and organizer advocating for the interests of patients in health care systems. She first inspired me by her presence and telling of her story at a national meeting of the Institute for Health Care Improvement. Following that meeting she became a valued resource in helping our health system design and implement full disclosure policies that truly meet patient and family needs at the time of disclosing errors and harm. Her integrity, poise, and core commitment help keep this health care executive thinking about the 'right stuff''. I am forever grateful to her.” ~Dr. Mark Novotny, Chief Medical Officer
"Dale is a nationally recognized champion of patient safety. If there is one person who embodies the resilience of the human spirit and the transformation of a personal tragedy into a powerful force for health care improvement, it would be her. She is both tireless and inspiring in her mission, building bridges of communication between patients, families, and healthcare providers through her work with Justin’s Hope. I am proud to call her a mentor, a colleague, and a friend."
~Tricia Pil MD, Pediatrician
