Healthcare Professional • 1,000+ hours of direct patient care • Float Pool – 8+ Med-Surg Specialties • Phlebotomy-Trained • Bilingual (English/Vietnamese)

Dedicated and hands-on healthcare professional with 1,000+ hours of clinical experience in acute and specialty care settings. Proven strengths in patient monitoring, vitals, documentation, infection control, and collaborative care.
Known for being adaptable, efficient, and compassionate under pressure. Seeking to contribute my clinical skills, professionalism, and empathy to a medical assistant role focused on quality patient care and teamwork.

I am writing to express my interest in the Medical Assistant position at your dermatology office. With a strong foundation in patient care, phlebotomy, and clinical support, I am excited about the opportunity to bring my experience and passion for healthcare to your team.

As a Patient Care Technician at Cottage Hospital, I worked primarily on med-surg floors and was frequently floated to specialty units such as oncology, cardiology, neurology, and orthopedics. This diverse exposure allowed me to adapt quickly to different patient needs, support various care teams, and sharpen my ability to multitask in high-pressure environments. I assisted with vitals, EKGs, charting, mobility, and patient comfort—skills I’m confident will translate well to a dermatology setting where attention to detail and patient trust are essential.

Outside the hospital, I helped launch and manage Kinbake Shop, where I developed strong interpersonal, leadership, and organizational skills. I believe my blend of clinical experience and people-centered service makes me well-suited for supporting both patients and providers in your practice.

Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to your dermatology team and continue growing within the medical field.

Sincerely,
Katherine Phan
