Dedicated healthcare professional specializing in dental office assistance.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated healthcare professional currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Health Science with a concentration in Healthcare Informatics at Stony Brook University, expected to graduate in May 2025. My experience as a Dental Office Assistant spans over three years, where I have honed my skills in patient management, digital radiographic imaging, and assisting in various dental procedures. I am passionate about enhancing patient comfort and ensuring efficient workflow in a dental setting.
Throughout my tenure at multiple dental offices, including Dr. Milhim Lewis, DDS, and Sweet Tooth Dental, I have developed a strong foundation in dental protocols and patient care. I am proficient in utilizing software such as Dentrix and Eaglesoft for effective scheduling and record-keeping. My commitment to patient education and comfort drives me to continuously improve my skills and knowledge in the dental field.
In addition to my professional experience, I actively participate in volunteer work to promote dental hygiene awareness in underserved communities. I believe in the importance of community engagement and strive to make a positive impact through education and support. I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a challenging role that allows me to contribute to patient care and healthcare informatics.
