"I love knowing that I am playing a key role in providing patients (and facilities) with the care and staff that they need and deserve."
We welcomed Melissa to our Express Healthcare team in March 2019. Hard-working, committed, flexible, caring, and dependable, Melissa has a variety of personal traits we value and that makes her an exceptional On-Call Scheduler. On top of all of this, Melissa also brings to our team 20+ years of experience in the healthcare field, having started off as a CNA before moving to work in Medical Records, Front Office Reception, and then becoming a Certified Medical Assistant that worked in both the front and back office. Melissa also has medical billing/coding and medical transcription experience.
As the daughter of a Marine, Melissa grew up in Springfield but spent a lot of time in Southern California. As an adult, Melissa spent about 10 years in Idaho before moving back to the Eugene/Springfield area.
Now Melissa is the proud mother of 3 daughters, ages 20, 17, and 11. They also have 3 animals, 2 calico polydactyl cats (extra toes) named Shadow and Shay, and a border collie mix named Panda. Melissa loves spending quality time with her family when she is not in the office. She also enjoys going hiking and participating in other outdoor activities when the weather permits.
