Hi, I’m
IMAN FARAH
Eden Prairie,MN
Summary
I am currently a fourth-year medical student with diverse healthcare experiences, including direct patient care during my clinical clerkships and outpatient care as a medical office administrative assistant, where I have developed skills in insurance documentation and medical billing. Additionally, my work as a community outreach worker has focused on health promotion and advocacy for health literacy. Furthermore, my experience as a medical record manager and medical scribe has refined my skills in clinical documentation.
I am dedicated to lifelong learning and am enthusiastic about pursuing opportunities across various healthcare fields. I aim to learn different facets of healthcare, from front-facing patient care to back-end healthcare administration, all while enhancing my clinical skills and contributing to a collaborative healthcare team.
I am seeking research, volunteer, and internship opportunities to further my development.
