Molly has been with us for a little over 13 years. She is one of the hardest working medical assistants I have ever met. She is brilliant, always smiling. and making her patients feel like family.  She uses all of her skills to the highest potential. She absolutely deserves to be recognized as no one else can hold a candle to Molly here at Texas Oncology Denton. When she is on PTO, her patients always ask where she is because seeing her for their office visits are a highlight. But it's the hard work she puts in the ensure her patients have everything they need that deserves this recognition. She is the manager of her team and her patients, and I truly hope she receives this award. It is so very deserving.

She does a lot for her doctors and our team, and it makes me happy to know I am coming into work with a great person on my team who is happy to be here and happy to care for our patients.

Caitlyn has the patience of Job. Though some may consider it simply as "her doing her MA job duties", I have witnessed Caitlyn on multiple occasions spend countless hours talking to patients on the phone, attempting to guide and talk them through their concerns all while trying to trouble shoot them through logging in for their scheduled virtual visits with provider. Despite spending an extended length of time with some, she does it with humility and kindness. In these instances, she exhibits the true definition of a "sunflower", bright and full of adoration and optimism.

Over her impressive 9-year tenure in my clinic, Ashley has significantly enhanced the overall effectiveness of our operations, and her unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional care makes her truly deserving of the Sunflower award.
