@taiwosamson
Medical Virtual Assistant and medical technical support specialist, delivering remote patient support, EHR/EMR assistance, and reliable help desk workflows.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Medical Virtual Assistant and Medical Technical Support Specialist with 1 year of experience supporting healthcare professionals, telemedicine providers, and health tech organizations. I manage virtual healthcare operations end-to-end—patient communication, appointment scheduling, medical documentation, and workflow optimization—so teams can serve patients with speed and accuracy.
I’m also skilled in remote technical support and help desk operations, including ticket management and user onboarding using Zendesk and Freshdesk, plus collaboration tools like Slack and Discord. From working with electronic medical records and remote patient monitoring to delivering patient education and clinical data capture, I communicate clearly with non-technical users and maintain HIPAA awareness, professionalism, and exceptional service in fast-paced healthcare environments.
