: Meet Dylan Lewis, Customer Service Specialist! Dylan grew up in Honey Brook, PA and graduated from Twin Valley High School. A lifelong sports enthusiast, he spent 15 years playing baseball and even returned to the game in 2023–2024 with the Pennsylvania Midstate Baseball League. These days, he cheers on the Phillies with his wife Jamie, whether from the couch or at Citizens Bank Park. Outside of work, Dylan enjoys “long walks to the coffee maker” and all things Philadelphia sports. In the warmer months, you’ll find him and Jamie at Deep Creek Lake, fishing and soaking up the outdoors. At home, their cat Toby steals the spotlight (and most of the camera roll). At Sports Medicine, Dylan loves the Lancaster County Coffee Roasters inventory, but what truly makes his day is the camaraderie with his teammates—from the front desk to the providers. He thrives on the positive vibes and shared mission of helping the community stay healthy. Emma Miller, Front Office Supervisor, shares: “Dylan is a hardworking individual who is always willing to help his team and patients. He consistently shows a strong desire to learn and take on new challenges. You can often find Dylan with a cup of coffee in hand and a smile on his face, bringing a positive attitude to the workplace.”
