“This recognition reflects the skill, judgment and compassion our clinicians bring to patient care every day—and the trusted partnerships they build with patients and families,” said Marni Carlyle, MD, Chief Medical Officer. “Their clinical expertise and commitment are at the heart of how we deliver high-quality, patient-centered care.”
Dr. Carlyle also underscored the importance of supporting advanced practice clinicians, especially as national policy discussions raise new questions about access to graduate clinical training. “APCs play a key role in expanding care throughout the region,” she said. “Protecting pathways into these professions is essential to meeting current and future community needs.”
