Workforce Wednesday: Kelsey Volkers uses skills learned in GRCC Medical Assistant program to help others
June 22, 2022, GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. -- Liza Barry, clinic manager at Lakewood Family Medicine, wants the best and the brightest when it comes to her medical assistant staff. Lakewood is a large family practice with 18 providers. The office, located in Holland, sees more than 1,600 patients a week.
“This environment is not for everyone. It’s a fast-paced, busy office,” Barry said. “Because of that, I am very upfront with potential externs and future employees. It can get a little hairy!”
