What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a fast-paced, deadline-driven patient-facing role where I can provide excellent customer service, communicate professionally, manage multiple priorities, and support a collaborative team.

At Knoxville Dental Associates, I coordinate multi-provider schedules for dentists and hygienists, helping maximize provider productivity and minimize appointment gaps.

I manage patient appointments, records, demographics, insurance eligibility, co-pays, and treatment-plan follow-ups while communicating schedule changes and urgent needs with clinical staff. I use Dentrix and handle high-volume inbound and outbound calls with professionalism and empathy.

Previously, at Iowa Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeons, I scheduled surgical consultations, submitted insurance claims, and contacted carriers to verify eligibility and benefits. I bring a kind, professional approach to patient communication and respect the confidentiality of patient accounts.
