With over three decades of direct patient care experience, Herbert has served in leadership roles at AdventHealth since 2006 and consistently demonstrates a commitment to excellence and innovation.
“Dr. Herbert brings a wealth of experience and expertise to our organization,” said Denyse Bales-Chubb, AdventHealth President and CEO, Flagler/St. Johns market. “Her background aligns seamlessly with our mission to provide the highest quality services to our community.”
