Professional Summary

I am a Medical Assistant with 4 years experience in healthcare. Skilled in providing Pediatrics. Efficient Medical Assistant

skilled in tackling administrative and patient-oriented tasks in a fast-paced medical office. I am skilled with greeting patients andtaking their vital signs and directing them to their assigned room. I also help out providers with interpreting for patients who are

Hispanics and need help understanding. I also make calls for providers to other clinics or hospitals if we need to get ahold of thepatients results if seen somewhere else. I also work the desk as putting in the patients vitals into the system and responsible forletting other nurses know how much medication to administer to those who come in sick. While at the desk I do have to multitask by also answering phone calls and helping the patient out as much as I can because they are also important as the ones inthe office.
