Dana Farber Cancer InstituteAdministrative Assistant
Oct. 2002 - Nov. 2005Boston, MAWhen I started at Dana-Farber I worked in the infusion room on the 1st floor of the institute. I checked in and scheduled patients for their chemotherapy treatments. I worked with numerous nurses schedules, scheduled labs, coordinated appointments with the doctor's secretaries, answered the phones and helped the patients with anything and everything they needed while they were in our department. In 2003 I took a position in GU Oncology working as an Administrative Assistant for Dr. Mary Ellen Taplin and Dr. Timothy Gilligan. I edited their CVs, scheduled patient appointments, handled their day to day schedules, maintained their email, scheduled their business trips, helped edit presentations, met patients in the clinic, coordinated appointments with other sections of the hospital and frequently hand carried slides to the Brigham and Women's Hospital so we were sure all of the patients information was in house.
