April is National Foot Health Awareness Month.

According to the American Podiatric Medical Association, approximately 20 percent of the U.S. population has at least one foot problem each year. It may be the result of poor fitting shoes, or the result of an underlying health problem such as peripheral neuropathy, diabetes or obesity.

Good foot health is essential for an active life. Call Baptist Health Deaconess Podiatry Care and let our team help you with any foot issues you might be experiencing. 270.825.7258.

This week's Employee Spotlight is Erika Cobb, MA on 3rd floor Family Practice in Madisonville.

I started working at BHDMG in September 2019 after moving back home from living in Nelson County, KY. I hired on as an MA with Family Practice for a new doctor straight out of residency. I had heard a lot about the provider as she is local to Madisonville and was moving back home to start her practice here. I started on the 30th of September, and she came a week later. We have been inseparable ever since. I remember being told that starting out new was rough because you're learning the job from scratch. I don't think it could have ever been better. She and I worked side by side learning the job and each other. I see her more than I see anyone in my family, and she is an absolutely amazing co-worker, provider, and friend.

What I enjoy most about my job is our patients. We have the best patients, and I enjoy hearing about their lives; what's new, their kids/grandkids, just life. I tend to crack jokes and give them nicknames just to get them laughing. Again, we have the best patients, and knowing I am part of a team that makes a difference in their lives keeps me motivated to come to work each day.

When I'm not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family and dog Moose, cooking, and seeing what T.J.Maxx has to offer for the week. When the weather permits, I like to be outside doing anything and soaking up the sunshine.

Thank you, Erika for being part of our team!
