14 years as a Physician Assistant, concentrating on primary, family, internal, and occupational medicine.
Four years of experience and an excellent skill set with electronic medical records, including eClinicalWorks.
My primary and internal medicine care experience has evolved to include formulating diagnostic and assessment plans for current medical conditions, promoting health, and documenting codes using ICD-10-CM codes to gain experience with quality measures.
My occupational medicine care experience focuses on work-related injuries, Department of Transportation (DOT) physicals, as well as federal pre-employment physicals, and federal examinations for CBP (Customs and Border Protection) and ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement).
