What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-focused clinical role where I can apply hands-on medical skills, EHR expertise, and bilingual communication to improve care and support efficient clinic operations.

I am a compassionate, detail-oriented Medical Assistant with over seven years supporting physicians and delivering high-quality patient care in fast-paced clinical settings. I am skilled in phlebotomy, injections, EKGs, medication administration, and maintaining sterile environments to support safe, efficient care.

I have substantial experience with electronic health records, including EPIC, and I manage scheduling, provider calendars, insurance referrals, and medical documentation with accuracy and discretion. I collaborate effectively with interdisciplinary teams to streamline operations, maintain inventory, and ensure compliance with HIPAA and infection-control standards.

Fluent in Spanish and English, I prioritize patient communication and satisfaction while demonstrating strong administrative capabilities and a commitment to ongoing professional practice, including CPR/AED certification and vaccine clinic operations.
