Ricardo Alvarez
Summary
I’m a Medical Assistant with 2 years of experience split between primary care and specialty clinics. I was recently promoted to a Float MA because I adapt instantly to different teams and can keep any clinic workflow running smoothly. No matter where I am floating, patients are always my number one priority, and I bring a lot of empathy to making sure they get the best care possible.
