About Addlyn Teague

I am an experienced healthcare communications professional with a passion for driving impactful communication strategies that foster strong relationships between healthcare organizations and the communities they serve. With a proven track record in strategic communications, media relations, and reputation management, I leverage these skills to enhance public perception, engage key stakeholders, and support organizational growth.In my current role, I work closely with senior leadership to shape and communicate HCA Florida Healthcare’s story, focusing on service line growth and the delivery of high-quality, compassionate care. By developing and executing comprehensive communication plans, I ensure that our messages resonate with diverse audiences, building trust and aligning with our mission “Above all else, we are committed to the care and improvement of human life.”I thrive on creating collaborative, meaningful engagement opportunities — whether it’s through local outreach, sponsorships, or partnerships — and always with a focus on delivering measurable impact.Some fun facts about me: I am a proud alum of Florida State University, my events in high school swimming were the 200 freestyle and 100 breaststroke, I have been in a State Farm commercial, and I could clean sweep a Jeopardy column on Broadway shows.
