Melissa G. Michaels

Senior Clinical Secretary

Neurosurgery

What is your fondest memory in your 25 years working at Dartmouth-Hitchcock?

My fondest memories revolve around all the remarkable people that I have had the pleasure of working with, building strong relationships with patients and fostering lasting friendships.

What about your job inspires you?

I am inspired every day that I come to work knowing that I have a direct hand in making a difference in a patient's life, or their loved one's life. There is nothing more rewarding than helping others during frightening and difficult times.

What do you like best about your department?

For the past 23 years, I have worked in the department of Neurosurgery. This special department consists of a dedicated group of professionals. Although small, we collaboratively achieve our goals. I have genuinely appreciated working with such a tremendously supportive team.
