08.2010 - Current
I have worked for Dr. Raymond Gritton along side the Congress doctors for nearly 14 years. Dr. Gritton provides EMG/NCV testing for Congress patients 2 days a week. I handle administrative duties for Dr. Gritton and Dr. Liva Yates Gritton. I maintain their licensure's, privileges and scheduling. I have face to face as well as telephone encounters with patients. I prepare outpatient billing and handle collections for their corporations. This is a part time job, so when I had the opportunity to work with Dr. Ashford, with whom I already had a good rapport I was excited to take on his surgery scheduling. My jobs go hand in hand. Congress has been my home these last 14 years and I feel lucky to work for such great doctors.
