“Each member of my team has been carefully selected, from the Physician Assistants to the Receptionists, to make sure that every team member reflects my philosophy of care and concern for our patients. From the moment you walk through the door, you enter an area of calm, peace, and relaxation. Respect and concern for your needs are paramount to all our staff. It is our goal to make each stage of your treatment as straightforward and positive as possible”. ~ Dr. Sean McCance
Martha Harbert // Practice Administrator
It is Martha’s role to provide leadership and 
direction for the entire team. With a Master’s Degree in Health Administration from Duke University and more than ten years as a hospital administrator, Martha decided she wanted a working environment that was less bureaucratic and more hands-on. What particularly impressed her when she first visited Dr. McCance’s office was the lovely physical environment, the state-of-the-art systems, the electronic patient record keeping, and the good teamwork. She joined the team in 2007.
When she’s not working with staff and patients she enjoys studying languages, travel, reading, and cooking.
