"Excellent patient care is given the second they walk through the door until they leave the office. A smile, encouraging words and kind interaction is all examples of the patient care that I provide."

The interviewer is looking for a particular story. It's a great idea to have a few stories in your back pocket for your interview to show how you personally impacted your patients treatment. When you share your story be sure to follow it with feedback that was provided to you either by the patient that you helped or a co-worker that applauded your care.

I treat every patient as if they are family. Their success matters a great deal to me, so I'm providing the best care I can give at all times.
Rachelle's Feedback
For 'tell me about a time...' style questions, the interviewer wants to gauge your behavior in a specific situation. I recommend giving a story-based example, which you can form using the STAR framework (Situation, Task, Action, Result). We have a guide on how to answer this type of question, and you can find it here: https://www.mockquestions.com/articles/Master Behavioral-Based Interviews Using The Star Method/
