Krystal Hinds-Dunbar, Executive Health Exams

In this particular internship, Krystal has the unique opportunity to learn a model of truly comprehensive health care. Her internship is with a company called Executive Health Exams whose mission is to provide the fullest possible range of health care services to clients with the assumption that this type of health care should be universal. EHE works similar to an employer health insurance provider except the organization provides all services in house. When an employer or company signs up for the EHE program, its employees (ideally not only the executives) are provided with a comprehensive program including preventative screenings, internist visits, and ongoing health counseling. Needless to say this model provides Krystal with direct exposure to various professional fields, from the medical to the administrative.

Krystal's mentor, Dr Susan Spear set up the internship in order to give the full range of exposure to all departments within the company. Currently she is working primarily with the patient records but spends at least one to two hours per week assisting nurses in the clinic. She is extremely competent in all of her work related responsibilities and has a great rapport with coworkers. Most importantly, Krystal understands the basic concept of communication and consistency. People can rely on her, she's confident and has great sense of humor. This girl is going places!
