I'd like to take a moment to honor one of the employees here at Medelita, David Saldana. David is our Embroidery Lead & Logo Artist. He's directly responsible for designing and digitizing every beautiful custom logo, as well all school and association logos, but as I've discovered these past weeks, his dedication to quality extends beyond his official duties.
After many months of sourcing and third party testing, we have acquired new snaps for our dental lab coats. These new snaps will be included in the production of our next batch of dental lab coats, but as I'm sure you've guessed, that wasn't enough for us. If we have something better, we want to give it to our customers as soon as possible.
Our solution was to replace the snaps on every dental coat currently in inventory. This is a massive undertaking, but David stepped up to the challenge. For the past few weeks, I've seen him every day at the snap machine in our warehouse, carefully removing the old snaps and replacing them with the new ones. It's no easy task either! He practiced for a long time, wanting his work to be perfect. He even obliged me when I asked to try out the machine (to be honest, I thought it would be easy) and I immediately applied too much pressure and broke the snap I was trying to place on the test fabric.
David's dedication and standard of excellence embody who we are as a company, and like all of our employees, we're proud that he's a member of the Medelita family.
