 Latesha Kinnard

Matthew Walker Comprehensive Health Center’s (MWCHC) “Spotlight” this month is Ms. Latesha Kinnard! She has been working at MWCHC since October 1, 2018 as a Medical Assistant in the Adult Medicine clinic. Latesha is motivated to wake up and go to work because she enjoys the family-like relationships with patients, coworkers, and especially Dr. Hicks.  Patients and employees notice her smile. Ms. Kinnard said, “One patient remarked about how bad he felt when he came to the center with the flu, but he told me that I had good energy, and it made him feel better.” When asked the reason she smiles all the time, Latesha said, “Everyday, whether it’s a good or bad day, on the job or off, I smile because my mother told me to keep smiling no matter how bad things seem.”

Let’s congratulate Latesha for being the “Spotlight” for November 2019!
