I was hired by the CEO of HCA McAllen, TX, I frequently attended seminars at Nashville, and interacted with the top personnel there. Thomas Frist, the founder of HCA rewarded me with the "EXCELLENCE IN COMMUNITY SERVICE AWARD"; I was awarded a TELSTAR from the Texas Society for EXCELLENCE IN COMMUNICATION.

I transferred to the North Texas Region at another HCA Hospital. I continued to attend presentations at HCA Corporate. It was there that I found that the hospital did not meet my expectations and left for other medical businesses.
