About My Self
- As a highly motivated and compassionate phlebotomist, I take great pride in providing exceptional care to those in need. I truly enjoy my work, particularly the opportunity to make a positive impact on patients' lives by ensuring their comfort and safety during blood collection. My passion for helping others was strengthened through personal experiences, such as caring for my father during his illness, which deepened my understanding of the importance of empathy in healthcare. I thrive in a team environment, where I collaborate with colleagues to deliver the best care possible, and I am always eager to extend that care to others in need.
