🌟 Employee Spotlight 🌟

We are excited to continue our employee Spotlight so you can get to know some of our awesome employees. You might see around the office! 

This month meet Khris! For several dedicated years, Khris has been the heart behind the scenes of Roswell Pediatrics. As our Scheduling Coordinator, she keeps our team running smoothly by managing staff schedules with incredible precision and care.

But her impact doesn’t stop there. From ordering supplies and coordinating meetings to organizing lunches and making sure everyone has what they need, she truly takes care of all of us. Her attention to detail, reliability, and positive attitude make a difference every single day.

We are so grateful for her dedication, hard work, and the steady support she provides to our entire team. Thank you, Khris, for all you do — we couldn’t do it without you!
