Tammi Milton, a medical assistant at USA Stanton Road Clinic, received the USA Physicians Group Employee of the Month Award for December.

Milton's family and co-workers gathered in the clinic's lobby to surprise her with the honor. "Thank you guys so much," said Milton, who joined Stanton Road Clinic in June 2010. "I love my job, and I love my patients. They know that. There is nothing I wouldn't do for them."

Brittany Brown, director of operations for internal medicine, presented her the award, which includes one paid day of administrative leave. "It speaks volumes about you as an individual, of course, but also the clinic you represent," Brown said. "Thank you to each one of you for giving back to our patients and making a difference."

"Since day one, Tammi has been my go-to person," said Robin Geary, clinical nurse supervisor. "On top of an employee relationship, we have developed a friendship."

Beverly Kellen, director of operations for Stanton Road Clinic, was unable to attend the presentation but wrote a letter to extend her congratulations. "We are so very proud of you and your dedication to our patients, your super attitude and camaraderie that you exhibit toward your coworkers," Kellen said. "You are exemplary, Tammi, and that is why you are being recognized today."
