Furman joins Lowcountry Medical Associates as marketing representative
July 2005

Valerie Furman Charleston, SC --- Lowcountry Medial Associates (LMA), one of South Carolina's largest primary care group practices, is pleased to announce the addition of Valerie Furman to its marketing department. Although, new to this position, Furman is a familiar face around LMA as she was previously employed by the radiology department in April 2002. During that time LMA expanded their radiology services and Furman worked at the new diagnostic imaging center located on Wesley Drive in Charleston.

In her new role, Furman will be responsible for marketing LMA's expanding central laboratory services and radiology services to referring physicians. With more than six years of customer service experience, Furman will work closely with physician offices to ensure their needs are being met, as it relates to ancillary services provided by LMA.

Prior to rejoining the LMA team, Furman and her husband moved to North Carolina where Furman was employed as a key manager with Carrabba's restaurant. Early this year Furman and her husband decided to return to the Charleston area for new business opportunities.

"I am happy to be back in Charleston and working with LMA. This opportunity provides new challenges and a new career potential. I enjoy meeting with new customers and working diligently to ensure excellent customer service is provided to our physician base," explained Furman.

"We are excited to have Valerie back as part of our team," said Wendy Manter, chief operating officer for LMA. "Having someone who understands ancillary services is important when interacting with clinical and business representatives in our community."

LMA consists of 60 primary care physicians in 21 practices conveniently located throughout the Lowcountry. LMA specializes in family medicine, pediatrics, internal medicine, and provides ancillary services including eight laboratory drawstations and a diagnostic imaging center.

LMA is dedicated to maintaining the physician-patient relationship and committed to delivering continuous, cost-effective, quality care with an emphasis on health maintenance and wellness.
