**********@*****.***
I work very well in a multi doctor and/or employee atmosphere. I use my time wisely and I am good at multitasking. I take my job seriously and I am prompt to work daily. I am proficient in using basic computer programs and skills and I am a quick learner if I do not have any experience with certain programs. I have years of experience in the veterinary medicine world which is very similar to human medicine so the slight change should not hinder me much in learning the job . I'm a single mother who is looking for a career with longevity and stability. I would love the opportunity to work at your facility. Authorized to work in the US for any employer
