This week, we’re excited to feature Buffy Smith, one of our dedicated Patient Access Representatives at Rivers Health!
Buffy has been a valued member of the Rivers Health team for 5½ years, helping patients navigate their healthcare experience with a welcoming smile and exceptional customer service.
A proud resident of Leon, Buffy brings a wealth of experience to her role, with a background that includes an Associate Degree in Business Administration, CMA licensure, CNA certification, and many years working in healthcare and long-term care facilities.
Outside of work, Buffy is a self-proclaimed party planner at heart! She loves planning and decorating for birthdays, baby showers, graduation parties, wedding receptions, and holidays. Family is also at the center of her life. She has been married for 27 years, is the proud mother of two talented sons, and is eagerly anticipating a new title this summer-Grandma! Her first grandchild is expected to arrive in July.
Thank you, Buffy, for the positivity, dedication, and compassion you bring to Rivers Health every day. We’re grateful to have you on our team! 💚
