Christa Karn

Office Receptionist

 

After graduating from Molalla High School, I got certified in Phlebotomy and worked at Red Cross and Quest Diagnostics throughout the years. After I became a mom, I moved to working in office settings part time so I can focus on my three boys!

My core values are that I believe in being kind to everyone, being generous, loving your neighbor, and raising your children to do the same.

When you are more fortunate than others, build a longer table, not a taller fence. -Unknown

I enjoy that we typically are able to get patients scheduled quickly, because it seems like it’s so common for offices to be scheduled out months ahead, so being able to get patients in quickly when they’re in pain is a great feeling.

I work part time as an office receptionist, so my main tasks are getting patients scheduled, handling insurance, greeting patients, and miscellaneous tasks around the office.

For the last three years, I have worked as an office assistant for a storage facility.

What I love about working at Gabbert Clinic is how kind and inviting all of our OT’s are, and I love getting to talk with the patients as they come in!

My favorite movie is Riding in Cars with Boys, my favorite show would have to either be Parks and Rec or the Office, and my favorite book is Romans out of the bible.

When I’m not at work, most my time is spent with my husband and my three boys (ages 5, 3, and 6 months). We enjoy spending the summer in our pool or taking the kids to different parks, I enjoy baking, cooking for my family, hiking, or if I get alone time here and there, I like to journal or read!
