So we'd like to um recognize our team member of the month for August, who uh grace us with her presence today. So Linda Thider. So I'd like to invite her and her um supervisor up Blair. And Blair, if you want to give a few words of how she was nominated and what are the things that she does to um display team member of the month. Absolutely. Um I'm happy uh that Linda was awarded this award. She's extremely deserving um for the past seven years. She's been with our team. She's been nothing but a breath of fresh air, especially when it comes to me as a supervisor in regards to access for our patients. Um she's the first one to step up if we have another team member who's either fallen ill or something's come up, they can't make it. She's the first one to text me and say, hey, fill in whatever you can. I'll take it on, like I can manage it. Um, you know, and she's also that person who, if we're having trouble getting new patients in, we'll also look at her schedule and try to rearrange, see what we can do to to accommodate to get those patients in and seen in a timely manner. So she's very deserving of this. She's a very big part of our team, a very good team member to have, and demonstrates teamwork amongst many of our other values. Thank you. Congratulations. Yeah, sure. Yeah, go ahead up front. Go ahead, Justin. All right, here we go. One, two, three. Lindy, you did a great job of blocking out Jake, as usual. Plus the buddy.
