Meet the Owner
Hello, My name is April Baxter Simmons and I have served in the healthcare field for over 14 years and began my journey working as a patient account representative. What started out as just a job to help me gain financial independence, turned into something I fell in love with. My career began with helping patients solve problems, supporting my practice physicians and eventually moving in to the role of office manager. Later in my career, my passion for healthcare management was coupled with my passion for education and training, allowing me to marry the two careers in a perfect union. As a result, I worked as an educator and Dean of Academics at a private college in Charleston, SC, having trained over 100 healthcare professionals in the field of Medical Billing and Coding and graduating over 600 students in Allied Healthcare Studies. My unique career experience has allowed me the opportunity to network and meet many elite professionals in the healthcare industry. Furthermore, my experience has gained me insight into some of the issues in healthcare management as it relates to the proper training and experience needed in order to operate as a healthcare worker. What I have learned is that the value of continuous training and development in healthcare workers has many benefits from retention of staff to the improvement of patient quality of care. As an advocate of both and everything in between, my job is simply to help medical practices educate the worker and develop the manager, maintain compliance, and build sustainable results that will make your company a success!
- I look forward to working with you soon! April R.B.S.
