What I'm looking for
I am a passionate medical assistant with extensive experience in patient care and administrative support within various healthcare settings. My journey began at Pima Medical Institute, where I honed my skills in medical assistance, and I have since worked in multiple clinics, including Intermountain Health Neurology Clinic and Children's Hospital Colorado.
Throughout my career, I have excelled in patient registration, vital sign monitoring, and insurance verification. My ability to multitask and prioritize effectively has allowed me to contribute positively to patient experiences and clinic operations. I am also bilingual, which enhances my ability to communicate with diverse patient populations.
