Heather Tumblin Norris: Accomplished Healthcare Professional and Clinical Supervisor at Piedmont Orthopaedics
Heather Tumblin Norris, honored by Influential Women in 2025, is a dedicated healthcare professional with more than two decades of experience across clinical operations, emergency services, orthopedics, ambulatory care, and healthcare management. In her current role as Clinical Supervisor at Piedmont Orthopaedics, Heather has spent the past two years leading teams, training clinical staff, and optimizing operational systems to enhance patient outcomes. Certified as both a Registered Medical Assistant and Orthopedic Technician, she also brings expertise in navigating advanced systems like Epic, excelling in high-pressure clinical environments.
Heather’s leadership is defined by compassion, accountability, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Whether she is mentoring staff, ensuring compliance, or implementing process improvements, she consistently fosters a culture of growth and integrity. Her vision goes beyond the day-to-day; Heather is a strong advocate for reshaping the healthcare environment to better support both patients and providers, ensuring that quality care and workplace well-being remain at the forefront.
Heather credits her success to her personal drive—an inner determination to constantly raise the bar not only for herself but also as an example for her family. The best advice she has ever received was to never stop fighting for what she believes in, regardless of the challenges that arise along the way. This philosophy has guided her in building a career marked by resilience and impact.
When offering guidance to young women entering healthcare, Heather emphasizes perseverance and self-belief. “Never let anyone tell you that you won’t amount to anything—because education alone doesn’t define you. Experience, dedication, and discipline are just as valuable,” she advises. Her words reflect her own journey, where she has turned barriers into opportunities and proven that determination can overcome systemic limitations.
Today, Heather recognizes advancement as one of the industry’s greatest challenges, especially for those without advanced degrees. Yet she views this not as a setback but as an opportunity to demonstrate that skill, work ethic, and commitment can break through traditional expectations. Through her leadership and advocacy, she continues to inspire a new generation of healthcare professionals to embrace both excellence and resilience in their careers.
