A box of donuts might seem like a small thank you — until you know the story behind it. 🍩

During an HCA Healthcare Leadership Institute session, Dr. Andy Moore, a division chief medical officer and orthopedic surgeon in HCA Houston Healthcare, noticed a small lump in human resources colleague Meghan Schneider’s neck — something she hadn’t seen herself. That quick observation led to an early thyroid cancer diagnosis.

Meghan later underwent surgery at HCA Healthcare’s TriStar Centennial Medical Center in Nashville, Tennessee to remove the tumor. Throughout her journey, Dr. Moore stayed closely connected, checking in and offering guidance every step of the way.

When Meghan asked how she could repay him, Dr. Moore joked, “Buy me a donut.” Before the year was out, she did.

“Even the smallest observation can make a life-changing difference, which is why routine exams, listening to patients and staying present in every interaction matter so much,” Dr. Moore shared. “Ask yourself this: Have I been delaying a colonoscopy, skin check or other recommended testing? If the answer is yes, today is the day to get that scheduled. Doctor’s orders!”

This Physicians Week, we’re recognizing the physicians who live our mission every day – delivering exceptional care and making a difference in the lives of others. Learn more about Meghan’s story and the importance of early detection: https://bit.ly/4lWtvRZ.

At HCA Healthcare, purpose often begins with a moment – one that changes the trajectory of a life and inspires a calling. For Mackenzie Hutchens, that moment came when her father was rushed to the hospital with a life-threatening blood clot. A routine ACL tear had unexpectedly escalated into a saddle pulmonary embolism – a diagnosis she had never heard of and one that left her and her family terrified. That feeling of helplessness would later spark her desire to care for others.

After high school, Mackenzie wasn’t sure which path to take and even explored early childhood education. But encouraged by her mother – and shaped by the memory of her father’s emergency – she turned toward healthcare.

Mackenzie earned her Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) license, then her Patient Care Technician (PCT) license and joined HCA Healthcare’s Memorial Health University Medical Center in Savannah, Georgia – the same hospital that saved her father’s life. It was there that everything clicked. She found her purpose in supporting patients and helping families feel calmer, informed and cared for.

Now, Mackenzie is taking the next step: she’s pursuing her Associate Degree in Nursing at Galen College of Nursing’s Savannah campus. Her journey reflects HCA Healthcare and Galen College of Nursing’s focus on addressing the national nursing shortage by increasing the pipeline of future nurses and expanding educational opportunities.

We’re proud of Mackenzie – and hope her story inspires you to explore the many nursing education pathways supported through HCA Healthcare and Galen College of Nursing. Read her story: https://bit.ly/4kOYkrj.
