I have worked as a Certified Medical Assistant for 14 years. My responsibilities have included the overall coordination of physicians’ patient loads in Family Practice and Orthopedic Clinics. This includes patient assessment and education, scheduling of tests and procedures, appropriate documentation, and serving as the communication link between the patient, the physician and other clinic departments or agencies involved in patients’ care. My husband and I are relocating to New York in October and I am looking forward to joining a practice in that area.
