I coordinate patient and client services through accurate scheduling, records, communication and compassionate care support.
What I'm looking for
I'm building a career in patient care coordination, client services and healthcare administration, combining customer-service experience with practical veterinary and animal-welfare training.
At Pinetown Veterinary Hospital, I support patient admissions and discharges, appointment scheduling, client communication, record updates, treatment documentation and animal monitoring under veterinary supervision. I also gain practical exposure to Provet veterinary practice-management software.
Across Outworx, WNS Global Services and CCI Global, I've handled structured telephone support for American and UK customers, including information verification, documentation, complaint resolution, escalations, payments and follow-up. At Outworx, I handle approximately 25 inbound customer calls per day and document interactions in Salesforce CRM.
My legal administration experience strengthened my discretion, records management, invoicing and calendar coordination. I'm completing a Higher Certificate in Agriculture and Animal Welfare through UNISA and bring a calm, compassionate and detail-focused approach to patient-centred service.
