What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to continue helping patients while growing in a supportive and dynamic healthcare environment.

I am a dedicated Medical Assistant with over five years of experience, certified by AMT, and specializing in both administrative and clinical duties. My journey in healthcare has been driven by a genuine passion for helping people, ensuring that every patient feels valued and cared for. I have honed my skills in various medical settings, providing support in dermatology, neurology, and community health.

At UCHealthMG Dermatology and Plastics, I assist with a variety of procedures, from laser treatments to biopsies, ensuring that the provider-patient interaction remains the focus of each appointment. My previous role in neurology involved triaging a high volume of calls and assisting with patient education on specialty medications for migraines. I take pride in my ability to create a positive patient experience, especially for underserved populations, as demonstrated during my time at the Pueblo Community Health Center.

My experience has equipped me with exceptional communication skills and the ability to work efficiently under pressure. I am proficient in EPIC and NextGen EHR systems, and I am always eager to learn new technologies that enhance patient care and practice efficiency.
