Woo-freaking-Hoo!! I got a JOB!! :)

[NoahsMommy]

YAY!!!!!!! I'm so excited!!!

I had an interview this afternoon at 2:00....yes, today!! I've never had a doctor call me on a Saturday night asking if I could come in for an interview on a Sunday afternoon. But, now I work for her and I already ADORE her!!

I'm now working for Dr. Nathan...she's a Family Practice & Surgeon and has been for approx. 40 years. She started as an OB/GYN. Her son is a PhD and is just finishing up his residency and about 1/2 of her 12 nieces and nephews are all MDs or PhDs....in her 27 years in this office, 17 of her past office staff have left to BECOME MDs!!!! *sqwee*

I'm going to be working Front Office, but Dr. Nathan is going to teach me back office as well...and whatever else I want to learn. I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo o excited to have someone like her be able to teach me like this. This woman is truly an inspiration, she is EXACTLY the doctor I want to become. She's the most compassionate doctor I've ever met, even makes housecalls to the local convalesent hosp...and not because she's hurting for pts, the waiting list for new pts is SIX MONTHS LONG!! :eek:

My and your prayer have been answered, I can feel it 150%. I start tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. :D I can't wait. Oh, and I get to wear scrubs!!! YIPPEE!!

A HUGE Thank You to you all for your constant prayers and support. It means so much and look! It worked out so well!!!

Love, Kelly :D

Congratulations!!! It sounds wonderful.

And, scrubs are great! You never have to worry about what to wear, and they are SO comfy. (Although be warned, the drawstring waist can lead to eating too much...5 lbs later, this is something I know first hand. :rolleyes: )

[wolflady]

That is so great Kelly! Congratulations!! This job sounds like a really good fit for you, and they are certainly lucky to have you on board! :D

[slick]

So Kelly, you are in the middle of your work day now. I hope it's going well...please post tonight and let us know.

I'm sending big {{{hugs}}} to you with much happiness about this news. It sounds as if this is a smaller office than the other places you worked?? Good luck sweetie and I look forward to reading some more updates. How does the back office work differ from the front office?? Just curious.

xoxo

[NoahsMommy]

Thank you all so much for your sweet words of Congratulations!! :)

I'm sorry I haven't been around until now. I had a really nice week at work, just really tired after not working at all - up to full time, running around a crazy busy docs office .

Everything is going really great. I love the doctor I'm working for. I really enjoy the people I work with and ADORE the patients!!!

Slick - front office is where you make appointments, talk to the patients on the phone and when they get there, take co-payments, do clerical things, take care of office things that are medically/doctor related, etc. Back office is processing blood, urine, stool, doing bloodpressure, weight, height, (vitals), taking patients to their rooms, assiting the doctor for whatever she needs during exams or in-office procedures, etc.

I'm actually going to be doing BOTH jobs. I've learned to take vitals, process urine and stool, take weight, do EKGs, put pts in rooms and lots of other things in the back and the front office. I'm having a great time and I'm getting PAID for it, its pretty great.

My health is my number one priority and I'm doing pretty well. :)

I'll update more later, I'm really hungry and need to do some Christmas stuff.

BIG HUGS to you all.

LOVE YOU!!!

[Freckles]

Whew, great news. I was a little concerned when you didn't report sooner.

[Cincy'sMom]

So glad to hear it is going well, Kelly! Congratulations!!!

[krazyaboutkatz]

Thanks for the wonderful update Kelly.:) This job sure sounds like it was made for you. I'm so glad that you're enjoying it and I hope that eveything continues to go well for you.:)

[Pam]

I didn't see this thread when it began, but fortunately I didn't have to wait too long for your report on your first few days. All I had to do was keep reading! :) Kelly this is wonderful and I am so happy for you. I work for an ophthalmologist in the front office and do all of his dictation as well and, though I mostly sit during the day, there is a lot of *up and down* and running around too. It sounds like you are doing well. I think this job sounds like *the one.* When you love your job it is not like work at all. I pray that will be the case for you. :)

[Rachel]

Oh, Kelly, I am so pleased to see this posting. Looks like persistance and determination have paid off with a good fit for you. Once you get fully acclimated to the routines and the expectations of your job, I'm thinking that you will be able to relax and that in turn will be so helpful to your overall health and well being. Just don't put too much pressure on yourself to *know it all* straight off. It takes time. Thanks for sharing the good news.

[moosmom]

Kelly that is wonderful news!!! I'm sorry I didn't post about it till now, but my online activity has been limited.

She sounds like a great lady to work for. Congratulations on a job well done. You certainly deserve a break, girl. Scrubs are the best because you don't have to choose your outfit everyday.

It certainly looks like things are FINALLY coming together for you. Here's to a brand new year with better things for you, honey.

[Felicia's Mom]

Kelly, I am happy things are looking brighter for you. :)

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

That is such great news, Kelly!!
