I’ve been with the company for a little over a year, and from day one, everyone has been friendly and treated me with the utmost respect. I truly believe we provide a welcoming environment for the patients referred to us, which is so important to me because I value friendliness and compassion—they go such a long way. Besides my daily office tasks, my favorite part of the job is helping Spanish-speaking patients by translating for them, as I know how overwhelming language barriers can be. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, and my two dogs. I also love playing soccer whenever I get the chance.
