How how does your job go?
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Yeah, we work alongside of the doctor and triage the
patients as they come and I don't pretend to be
a doctor at all, but you know, just letting the
doctor know all their symptoms, asking the patient to be
very honest so that we can get to the problem.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
That's amazing.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
That is a huge I bet if you look over
your your time as a medical assistant, just think of
how many patients you were able to kind of ease
their mind, helping them out and supporting them, I hope.
