Meet Amelia Woodard

My grandmother is a diabetic and I was younger when she was diagnosed. I didn't quite understand why she had to prick herself and monitor what she eats. Now, I know and understand more about diabetes and the importance of the service and supplies that we provide for our patients.

Interview

Q. What is the main reason patients call in?

A. Aside from ordering supplies, patients call with questions about their account and meter training. I assist them with any questions they may have as well as getting their meters set up to begin testing their blood sugar.

Q. What makes you good at your job?

A. Okay, so I'll toot my own horn just a little. What makes me good at my job is being understanding of the patients' needs. I love helping people and I am glad to be able to assist in the process of getting their supplies to them.

Q. What's your favorite part of your day?

A: My favorite part of my job is interacting with different patients and being able to help them in some way. A lot of times patients will call to have someone to talk with or just to ask a simple question. Some of the patients have funny stories/jokes that they tell and that always brightens my day.
