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.

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.

What Our Patients Say

Lisa Baker is always wonderful and I am beyond pleased with h the care she gives me.. She listens and helps handle my problems. I am so thankful for Lisa, HealthFirst and their wonderful doctors and nurses. They even stepped in and helped me when my husband switched jobs and we were without insurance. Thank you all so much.
I have been a patient at Health First for approximately a year. Now. I'm retired but my career history is in medicine, being a former family practice manager in Maine. Maine. I do know quality Care from not cell quality Care. I couldn't be happier with Health First in general and particularly Jennifer Tichich. It's amazing, particularly in this age of less than personalized in quality healthcare to find a provider. So caring, thorough, intelligent and willing to work with you. You you for your complete Health Care. Many services are available through their office. I'm so happy that I found them.
My visit today was urgent. They found a spot right away. The provider was prompt and new what she was doing. The receptionist with the dark hair and glasses it's either Jennifer or Jessica was absolutely amazing as she always is, caring and so very special. I would love it if someone can recognize her. Some of the other ones are snappy.
Isabel Watts is an excellent practitioner.
She is very thorough, knowledgeable and kind. Her assistant, Jasmine, is also very adept. I highly recommend this HealthFirst care team.
Dr Wojcik is my primary care physician at Health First. She is always attentive and fully answers all my questions. Tests and blood work are routinely ordered and advice given to enable me to live my best life! I am happy and blessed to call her my doctor!
The staff at Health First Family puts in the extra effort to get all your medical needs taken care of. Ruth did a great job getting the medical records needed for the onboarding process. I'm grateful for doctor Watts level of care and attention to details.
JENNIFER Is absolutely the best she listens, she respectful. She is super kind hearted and soft spoken. I love that about her. She doesn’t over talk you. She really listens to you. If you have any concerns she’s easy to contact. She would do her best to make sure she takes care of your needs and everything that it is you may be worried about. I honestly wouldn’t see anybody else besides JENNIFER. I absolutely love her.
Health First meets all of my expectations. The front desk staff are courteous, helpful, prompt and friendly. The medical staff are always helpful and knowledgeable. Dr Watto is excellent. He answers all of my questions and finds relevant information if needed. I have high respect for his ‘treat the whole body’ and his common sense approach to medicine.
