Optometric Assistant Example

Dear Mr. Willis,

I would make a welcome addition to the staff at New Parkland Eye Care Center as an Optometric Assistant. My qualifications, outlined in detail in the attached resume, include certification as a Medical Assistant, on-the-job training I have acquired over the past six years and a passion for helping patients receive quality eye care.

During my six years working at Main Street Eye Associates as an Optometric Assistant I demonstrated an ability to perform a variety of administrative and clinical duties. I have firsthand experience performing basic diagnostic testing, accurately recording the results of these tests in a database, measuring vision, testing eye functions and providing eye care instructions to patients.

My organizational skills would come in handy at your office. I am able to prioritize tasks effectively, including preparing exam rooms, cleaning equipment, ensuring that all necessary equipment is out for the doctor to use, making appointments, answering phones and passing messages from patients onto the doctor.

You will also benefit from my ability to incorporate new database management techniques into office procedures to increase efficiency by ensuring that all patient information is easily accessible. I am available to schedule an interview at a time that works best for you.

Sincerely,

Christina Abrams
