Congratulations, Darby!

🌟 Celebrating Excellence at AdventHealth Polk! 🌟

We are thrilled to announce Darby Craig as the recipient of the "Own It" Service Excellence award! Darby has shown exceptional dedication and commitment to her role as a Mammography Technologist. Despite graduating from Radiology school less than a year ago, Darby embraced her training and took on the responsibilities of the Mammography Coordinator with grace and determination.

Her hard work and dedication have ensured that our mammography program continues to provide exceptional care for our patients. Darby's willingness to "own" her duties, from managing QA/QC tasks to sorting through mammography reminder letters, exemplifies the AdventHealth service standard of "Own It."

Join us in congratulating Darby for her outstanding achievements and her unwavering commitment to excellence. Thank you, Darby, for making a difference in the lives of our patients and embodying the spirit of AdventHealth! 💙
