United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a genuine, nurturing medical assistant with a ten-year background assisting medical teams in examining and treating patients. I hold National Certified Medical Assistant certification and professional certificates in phlebotomy, sterile processing, and medical office support.
I take pride in delivering pleasant patient experiences through empathy, active listening, and strong clinical skills such as triage, vital-signs assessment, EKGs, venipuncture, injections, wound care, and specimen collection. I am experienced with multiple EHR/EMR systems including Cerner, IMS, HM, NextGen and Athena.
My work history spans acute and outpatient settings as a medical assistant, CNA, and medical unit secretary, where I handled patient intake, documentation, appointment coordination, and inventory management.

I am motivated by patient-centered care and continuous learning, and I seek opportunities to expand my clinical expertise while contributing to a respectful, team-oriented healthcare environment.
