Today for Teammate Tuesday we have Katrina Crockett, one of our Certified Medical Assistants in our Fort Mill office. Katrina chose a career in healthcare because she has always been someone who cares about the well-being of others. She has also had some great role models, “Almost all of the women in my family are in the medical field.” She also learned first-hand how important having compassionate healthcare workers care for you can be. “When both of my parents were in the hospital, I was amazed at how caring the staff was to them both as well as me and my sibling. Cancer is a hard thing to go through, but when you have compassionate people around to support you, it makes things easier.” Katrina loves working at Novant Health Bariatric Solutions because she loves being able to work with the patients and see how life-changing bariatric surgery can be. “I can relate to what they are going through because I had weight loss surgery as well.”
On a personal note, outside of work, Katrina loves to sing, read and take long walks with her dog, Nina. Katrina’s first job was at Sears in the Bedding and Bath Department. Her favorite restaurant in Charlotte is Hook and Reel Seafood Bar, “I love the crab legs and lobster tails.” The personal accomplishment that she is most proud of is watching her 3 children grow into successful young women. Her favorite place that she has ever traveled to is Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. “It has beautiful white sand beaches with some of the most beautiful blue water you have ever seen.” Lastly, she was asked if she could have a superpower for a week, what it would be. She shared “Time Manipulation. The ability to pause, rewind, and fast forward time at will. I could see my parents who are no longer here.”
