How would your subordinates describe you?
"I am new to the role of the medical office manager and I do not have a whole wealth of experience in a supervisory position. However, the experience I do have, I think would show that I am easy to get along with and always willing to help make the burden of work lighter for others as much as possible."
"I have every confidence that those who have worked in a subordinate role to me would give positive feedback regarding my conduct and fairness. I believe in hard work and dedication. I also believe in being just with my decisions. I feel like developing good communication skills within a team is crucial and it starts with those of us in supervisory roles."

The interviewer is looking for cues from you that you are capable of establishing a good working relationship with those for whom you have charge.
"I would like to believe that my subordinates would speak well of me. I try to be fair and I always try to make sure that assignments and expectations do not show favoritism. While I can't do every job by myself, I won't ask someone else to do something that I would refuse to do myself."
