Living a life of service requires selflessness and many sacrifices, but these traits come naturally to a special group of people: our colleagues who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. From battlegrounds and missions to offices and exam rooms, these individuals pride themselves on their willingness to serve others before themselves, and for that we are thankful.

At UF Health, many employees join our team after their time in the military so they can continue to assist our patients, families and the community. On the following pages, we highlight several of our colleagues who have done just that.

We thank our veterans and we are honored to have so many among us at UF Health. We encourage you to take time this Veterans Day, and every day, to acknowledge and thank our co-workers who have served and are currently serving our country.
