HealthFirst Employee Testimonials
HealthFirst’s mission and the CEO’s vision are what drew me here. What I didn’t expect was the incredible culture, the amazing support from my manager, and the wonderful friendships I have made here. It is heartwarming being with other mission-minded people who are passionate about making a difference and having FUN while doing it. Every single position at HealthFirst contributes in some way to the overall mission. While my role is “behind the scenes,” I feel like I am part of something much bigger. The paycheck is nice, the benefits are great, but the goosebumps you get knowing what you’ve helped accomplish are simply the best.
Melissa Fisk, PHR, SHRM-CP
Human Resources Director
I love working at HealthFirst for many reasons,… when you walk down the halls of our clinic, more likely than not, you can hear laughter coming from the exam rooms. Our clinical staff and providers know our patients personally and always greet them with smiles and exuberant conversation. The atmosphere at HealthFirst is warm, casual, and welcoming; this is not the case in larger medical facilities. I always recommend HealthFirst to people for these reasons and to those who are looking for whole-person care as we have Nutrition and Behavioral Services all under one roof.
Laurie Terwilliger, RDN
I enjoy working at Health First Family Care Center in Franklin because it gives me the opportunity to make a positive difference in the lives of our patients every day. I appreciate being part of a team that is compassionate, supportive, and dedicated to providing high-quality care to our community.
The positive work environment and teamwork make coming to work enjoyable. Everyone is willing to help one another, and we all share the same goal of ensuring our patients receive the best care possible. I also value the relationships I have built with my coworkers and the patients we serve.
Working at Health First Family Care Center has allowed me to grow both professionally and personally. It is rewarding to know that my work contributes to the health and well-being of individuals and families in our community, and I am proud to be part of an organization that truly cares about the people it serves.
Ashley, Patient Service Representative
I have been employed with Health First for going on four years now. Shortly after my hire, my family experienced a significant hardship. The care, love, and support that wrapped around my family and me is something I will never forget. It made me truly understand why Health First was awarded 'Best Working Place for Parents' in 2026. I love our patients and my wonderful work community.
Bridgette Strahan, CCMA
One of the things I appreciate most about working at HealthFirst is that everyone has a shared purpose. We all come together to provide the best care possible for our patients, and every role is recognized as an important part of that mission. I feel valued, supported, and encouraged to do my best every day. It's rewarding to work for an organization that not only cares about the community it serves but also invests in the people who make that care possible. Being part of HealthFirst gives me a real sense of pride, and I know the work I do makes a difference.
Sonja Maley, HR Administrator
Health First truly is that, even for its staff. When I needed accommodations made to my exam rooms, office and schedule, this was done without any hesitation.
I feel the organization truly means what it says, we strive to provide compassionate health care.
I really enjoy working here because I get to build relationships with a wide variety of patients and their families.
Lisa, PA-C
