GET TO KNOW YOUR SURGERY SCHEDULERS
GRETCHEN MORALES
Since 2006 I’ve been excited to work for Kaiser Permanente. I began my journey in Surgery Scheduling in 2012. I place a high value in teamwork. With experience across multiple departments within Surgery Scheduling, I continuously seek and embrace new challenges. In my personal time, I enjoy traveling and spending quality time with family.
As I approach my two-year mark as the Supervisor of Surgery Scheduling team, I’m proud of the strides our team has made and the ongoing improvements we have implemented to streamline our processes and enhance patient care. It’s been a rewarding journey watching our department grow and succeed. Today I’d like to take a moment to introduce two of our dedicated surgery schedulers: Deedra Alaniz and Gretchen Morales. They’ll be sharing a bit about themselves so you can get to know the amazing people behind the work they do. Moving forward, each quarter’s Surgery Scheduling Newsletter we will be highlighting different members of our scheduling team-offering insight into who they are, how long they’ve been with Kaiser Permanente, and the unique value they bring to our department. A WORD FROM THE DEPARTMENT SUPERVISOR
