Simran Alexandra
@simranalexandra
Medical Assistant and nursing student with 8+ years in women’s health and patient-centered care.
What I'm looking for
I’m a full-time nursing student with 8+ years of experience supporting women’s health and reproductive care in fast-paced, team-oriented clinical environments. I bring a strong work ethic, leadership experience, and a genuine enjoyment of working with people, backed by hands-on patient care and operational support.
In my most recent role as a Lead Medical Assistant / Surgery Coordinator at Tenet Healthcare, I coordinated prenatal care from referral through postpartum follow-up, educated patients on prenatal development and recovery, and supported OR surgical teams with pre-op preparation, sterility protocols, and accurate documentation. I also managed high-volume OB and surgical workflows, including ICD-10/CPT coding, prior authorizations, and EMR documentation.
I’ve also served as an Interim Clinic Manager at FPA Women’s Health and a Training Director at Planned Parenthood Southeast, where I led clinical training and improved intake, discharge, and patient flow. Whether delivering direct care such as phlebotomy and specimen collection or maintaining OSHA/HIPAA compliance, I focus on empathetic, trauma-informed communication and dependable, detail-oriented execution.
