Healthcare is Human: Internal Medicine Residency, Melissa Green, Clinic Manager
In this episode we meet Melissa Green, the office manager at University Internal Medicine, the outpatient home for the new WVU Internal Medicine Residency at the Berkeley Medical Center in Martinsburg, WV.
“I'm very excited for the program, our patients, and the community. I started my career in phlebotomy, worked my way up to referrals and authorizations, and now I'm the office supervisor for this wonderful practice and residency program.”
“We want our residents to have the best experience. This is our first year and we want to ensure that they have everything readily available. But most importantly, I think long-lasting relationships are really important. At the end of three years, I hope these doctors say ‘This was the best choice. I'm glad I chose this program.’ I hope, at the end, they can just say that this program was wonderful and they had a great experience.”
This episode features the original poem "Against Sarcopenia” read by its author, Renée K.Nicholson. Music written and performed by Robert Sears.
