What is needed for this kind of Work?

For this kind of work you need to be very mindful and empathetic towards patients. You have to try and put yourself in their shoes as much as possible as this process can be a difficult time for patients so anything you can do to make the process easier for them is helpful. You also need to be very organised, diligent and up to date with all necessary information, as it is vital that you know exactly what you are doing when booking patients in for different scans and appointments.

When did you join the Waterstone Team?

I joined the Waterstone Team in July 2017 and have never looked back.

Describe a Typical Day at Work:

A typical day for me, if I am on front desk, includes opening up reception and preparing the area for our patients. I then spend the morning checking in patients for their scans, procedures, blood tests and semen analysis etc. I also take calls, reply to emails and book patients in for further scans and appointments. In the afternoon I welcome new and returning patients for consultations with our fertility consultants. I catch up on necessary paperwork and scanning. I keep up to date with scanning and organise patients charts for the next day of scans and clinic. When closing the clinic I am in charge of locking up and making sure everything is ready for the next day.

I work in an amazing team, we all work very well together, which makes my job so enjoyable.
