To Whom It May Concern:
Please accept this correspondence as a letter of strong support for Paulla Weddle. I have personally known Paulla for over 15 years. During this time she has proven herself to be poised, competent and reliable.
Paulla cares for our post-op surgical patients when they are unable to care for themselves. Our patients say they feel very comfortable and secure with Paulla by their side. Additionally, Paulla's knowledge and experience in plastic surgery is exemplary.
It is my pleasure to highly recommend Paulla Weddle for post-op surgical care. If further information is needed, please feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,

To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter on behalf of Paulla Weddle, whom I had the pleasure of meeting following surgery earlier this year.
Although I had originally planned to care for myself, it was strongly recommended that I have someone, at least for the first couple of days, to assist with the ice packs, medication, etc. and as a safeguard "just in case".
As I am a very independent person, I really thought that I could handle things on my own. I hate to admit it, but I am so glad that I had arranged with Paulla to help me out. It would have been nearly impossible for me to have done everything by myself.
She was waiting for me after surgery, drove me to a nearby Hotel and took me to my follow-up visit the next day. Hourly, throughout the entire night, she applied iced wash cloths to control swelling, made sure I kept hydrated and medicated. She escorted me to the restroom and on one trip, I was not real steady and almost passed out - I would hate to think what might have happened if I had and she hadn't been there. I had no idea how vulnerable I was & it was pretty scary.
In addition to being very independent, I am also a very private person. Paulla somehow managed to completely respect my privacy, make me feel safe without being intrusive, knew exactly what to do & when to do it. The amazing thing is that I looked pretty ghastly, yet she was not the least bit taken aback and was as nurturing as anyone could possibly be (keep in mind, we had never met before this).
I know this will sound corny, but in my mind, Paulla is quite literally an Angel and I would gladly recommend her to anyone considering assistance after surgery.
Sincerely,
SB
P.S. Paulla did not tell me until after the fact, but agreed to care for me in the middle of her Birthday getaway in Palm Springs - she drove all the way to Coronado and back to Palm Springs! How many people do you know that would do that, let alone a total stranger!

To future patients who need post-op care:
It gives me great pleasure to write this letter of commendation to convey my complete satisfaction with Paulla Weddle, the caretaker who looked after me during my recent surgery. After scheduling my surgery date, I began the process of telephone interviews in hopes of finding an experienced caretaker to help me through my post-op recovery. As soon as I began talking to Paulla, my search ended. I intuitively knew I had found the right person. Ms. Weddle emitted warmth through her voice. I could sense her nurturing, her compassion and her genuine commitment to her role as caretaker. She even extended an offer to meet me in person prior to surgery if this would help me in the decision process. I declined her kind invitation, as I didn’t feel it necessary, though I truly respect and appreciate the extra “unpaid” time she was willing to spend with me. The communication by phone was enough to squelch any anxieties I might have had in entrusting my care to someone I didn’t even know. Paulla was “genuine” and I knew I had found the right person. In addition, her fees were very fair and competitive with other caretakers I had phoned.
Paulla was punctual with her transportations duties. She picked me up after my surgery, and also took me to and from the doctor’s office for my next day post-op appointment. Her demeanor was always uplifting, and I never saw her without a smile. I truly believe that this kind of “positive” spirit is imperative for the healing process. She oversaw my taking of medication and prepared light meals as needed. She changed my ice packs consistently during the day and throughout the night, to keep the swelling in check. She was conscientious in keeping me well hydrated. It was such a comfort just to know that Paulla was in the next room ready to help me in any way necessary.
I would highly recommend the caretaking services provided by Paulla Weddle. I truly believe that having a feeling of peace and giving my trust over to Paulla is the reason why my recovery went so beautifully! And speaking of “beautiful”, Paulla is a beautiful lady both inside and out!
I am so very thankful that I had Paulla Weddle’s hand to hold on to.
Sincerely,

Having plastic surgery for any person is somewhat of a daring, yet
scary, yet promising event. It is a huge, personal decision about important
spiritual, emotional and physical parts of one’s life. Sometimes,
as it happens, family members are so emotionally attached, that it becomes
difficult to have them involved in the "intricacies" of the
procedure.
This is where PAULLA WEDDLE comes in.!!!! Paulla is a "special"
kind of human being to help one "over the hump" of getting
all of these issues in carefully prepared order. She was with me from
beginning to end. The comfort of knowing that an experienced, compassionate,
person would be there was so reassuring. I would have her with me "in
a minute" if I ever chose to do something like this again.
It took a LOT of worry off my family also, to know that I was in such
good care.
Thank you, Paulla
