“AdventHealth Daytona Beach has a strong reputation for providing high-quality care and I am honored to join the team,” Sinclair said. “My passion for improving patient outcomes and advancing health care aligns perfectly with AdventHealth's commitment to whole-person care. I look forward to working with the talented staff and physicians to improve the health and well-being of our patients and community."

AdventHealth is excited to be actively expanding outpatient services with a new 3-floor ambulatory surgery center and medical office building currently under construction in partnership with community physicians. The $45.7 million building is slated to open in January 2024.
