This month, we are highlighting the doctors at Women’s Internal Medicine located in East Greenwich. Kristin Poshkus is one of the doctors and partners at this independent, private practice. They are an all female, adult care group that specializes in primary care. These 5 physicians share the responsibilities from client care to decision making, and everything in between.
“With the help of a great office manager, we manage our practice ourselves,” says Poshkus. “We are very collaborative with each other, and I think that’s something that’s not true as much in medicine as it probably should be. Collaboration as a group of physicians is important to us and we’ve been very fortunate in being able to work with each other really well in that way.” Women’s Internal Medicine enriches their individual communities as well as the town of East Greenwich with charitable donations and sponsoring local youth teams in the area.
When Women’s Internal Medicine was moving forward into the technological era with their practice, they invested in their EHR. Not only did they need a company to get computers from, but one to also manage their network and the new machines. They were looking for a local company that understood their needs, concerns, and would be there if they needed help. After calling about a dozen companies and meeting with half of them, their final choice was IT Support RI. “We never had this kind of a relationship with an outside group before. Having the ability to call and ask for a tech by name and get an immediate response was a huge deciding factor. Being able to know and having the consistency of having someone that is going to know how to help, or if they can’t, they will figure it out and get back to you. It makes a big difference.”
