Melinda Kreis, BSME
Melinda is our Office Manager, Receptionist, Insurance Biller, and overall office guru. She may be one of the first faces you see upon coming to the office or the first voice you hear on the phone. Melinda comes to us with 19 years of post-college life experiences that include obtaining a mechanical engineering degree from University of South Carolina and working in the water treatment industry as a field service engineer traveling all over the southeast for 14 of those years. She chose to become a stay-at-home mother to her three children for 5 years, volunteering at their schools and leading the Parent Teacher Organization. It was then that she decided she missed having a workplace to call home. Fate and friendship led her to Betsy’s office, which was in need of someone to help with insurance billing. This quickly manifested into a much bigger role and now Melinda is instrumental in the overall day-to-day practice operations and looks forward to continued growth with The Center.
