Here’s your transcript with the timestamps removed and cleaned up for readability:
My name is Tyler Reed. I'm a physician assistant, originally from Cincinnati, Ohio.
I did my graduate school and training at the University of Alabama at Birmingham in Birmingham, Alabama. Cardiac surgery was my one true interest going into school, and I knew it was what I wanted to pursue post-graduation. The opportunity at Lee Health presented itself and allowed me to dedicate myself to exactly what I wanted to do in my career.
I have family members who have undergone heart surgery, which has always been a passion of mine and a driving force in my decision to get involved in this field.
Outside of work, I have a young son, and spending time with him and my wife is my primary interest. I also enjoy golfing and all aspects of being outdoors. What better place to enjoy outdoor activities than South Florida?
