Visiting the doctor can be stressful and as the first face most patients see when they walk through the door, I try to make their visit as welcoming as possible. My goal is to assist patients with whatever they might need in a calm and efficient manner. You’ll primarily find me at the front desk scheduling and checking patients in, but I also assist patients with their medical records and answering the occasional billing or insurance question.
