August 2025 LEAF Award Recipient

Angie Nguyen-Webster

Angie Nguyen-Webster, RT, Respiratory Care
LEAF Award – August 2025

As a rockstar respiratory therapist at San Antonio, Angie doesn’t just save lives, she does it with skill and grit, especially in the sometimes chaotic environment of the ED.  Angie radiates a positive vibe wherever she goes, turning high-stress shifts into moments of calm, connection, and the occasional well-timed joke.  For Angie, taking care of her patients is not just a job--it’s a calling she takes pride in, showing up every day ready to give patients her absolute best.  She was nominated for our LEAF Award by another member of our care team. A patient with a tracheotomy had been brought in and was rapidly deteriorating.  Angie stepped in and immediately saved the patient’s life.  She performed techniques to clear a blockage, and within seconds the patient’s color and oxygen came back to normal.  You ARE a Rockstar, Angie!  Thank you for being such an outstanding part of the San Antonio team!
