Congratulations to the following October STARDoM<\/a> awardees!!!<\/p>\n

Lindsey Barlow, B.S Neurobiology<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cLindsey has all of the qualities of a STAR! She is a relatively new medical assistant to our suite (Crosstown 5A), but she has already made quite the impression. Her work is consistently exceptional; she not only does her work with efficiency and attention to detail, but she also keeps an eye on the big picture and doesn’t hesitate to step in when help is needed.<\/span>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Job Title<\/strong>: Medical Assistant
\nHow many years have you been at BUSM\/BMC?<\/strong> 1
\nDescribe your role within the Department of Medicine<\/strong>
\nAs an MA in GIM\u2019s women\u2019s health department, I get patients ready to see their provider. I check vital signs, do any point of care testing needed, and assist with birth control procedures. I also help patients receive any housing, food, and immigration resources they may need.
\nWhat do you like best about your job?<\/strong>
\nMy favorite thing about my job is a tie between 2 things- the first is talking with patients and hearing their stories. The second is learning from the amazing providers in my clinic. They have taught me how to care for patients as a whole, which is a lesson I hope to bring with me if I get into PA school.
\nFavorite thing to do outside of work?<\/strong>
\nI love making jewelry! You\u2019ll find me at Rosie\u2019s Place teaching a jewelry class :)
\nLittle known fact<\/strong>: I\u2019m running a half marathon in November!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Job Title<\/strong>: Program Coordinator
\nHow many years have you been at BUSM\/BMC?<\/strong> I have been at BUSM\/BMC for 6 months!
\nDescribe your role within the Department of Medicine
\n<\/strong>I am the Fellowship and Administrative Coordinator for the Section of Infectious Diseases; I oversee all of the regulatory components to ensure section and fellowship compliance with the institution and accreditation sources.
\nWhat do you like best about your job?
\n<\/strong>I love witnessing the fellows’ growth and working with all the incredible faculty and staff.
\nFavorite thing to do outside of work?
