At UF Health, we’re surrounded by modern-day heroes — men and women who have made sacrifices to serve our country in the U.S. Armed Forces. These heroes don’t work in masks or capes; instead they wear scrubs, suits, white coats, dresses and polo shirts. They sit next to us in meetings, care for our patients, perform life-changing surgeries and respond to emergency calls.

Although there will never be the right words to describe their selflessness, dedication and valor, we hope this feature allows you to appreciate some of the heroes who work among us at UF Health.

As we pay tribute to these heroes for Veterans Day, we thank all among our workforce who have served and are currently serving our country.
