What my colleagues say about me: "Dru is one of the hardest working and most responsible people I have ever met," said Dr. Rolf Behrents,
chair of orthodontics. "Her intensity is legend and springs from the pace of her mind, words and actions – and her commitment to quality and integrity.
"While the focus on her work is sharp, Dru also is highly regarded for her personal qualities," he continued. "She is admired for her insight and quick wit, her sensitive interior and her
demonstrations of concern for others. Those who know her best admire, respect and have deep affection for this tireless worker and outstanding person."
Julie Bradshaw,
administrative coordinator in orthodontics, also commended Lewis' work ethic. "Dru is the most dedicated employee I have ever worked with," she said. "If Dru is given a project, you never have to worry about it again because you know that she will give it 110 percent. She is delightful to work with!"
