This month, we highlight Marilyn Garcia! Marilyn, a first-generation Dominican American, brings her dedication to education and empowerment to her role as a Medical Technician. She has been with the Department of Ophthalmology for over a year and has certainly left an indelible mark on all of her colleagues and the patients she has encountered. She is currently pursuing her OCT certification to further enhance her professional abilities and add value to our Department. This showcases her drive for professional growth and constant development. Although her original studies were in forensic science, Marilyn's passion for exceptional patient care shines through in her commitment to exceeding expectations.

Once again, we congratulate her for all her noted contributions to the Department.
