Sheyla Salas-Tuz

Medical Assistant

Why did you choose to work in the medical field?

I started off with wanting to gain experience in the medical field. My first job was as a CNA(Certified Nursing Assistant), Med Tech and currently I’m a Medical Assistant. Through the years I have learned a lot from the nurses, physician assistants and the doctors I have been working with.

What’s your hidden talent?

Cooking! I actually love cooking on my days off and trying to make new plates such as authentic Mexican food.

What’s your favorite place you have been to thus far? And where would you like to go next?

I have gone to New York, Seattle Washington, North and South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Chicago and Mexico. I loved all those places I have been but I would love to go to Greece one day.

What’s your favorite dish and where can we get it?

Tacos! I love tacos! So normally when I go to Mexico every stand of tacos is good, none of them fail you. But here normally I love the tacos my dad does for us he cooks the meat, makes his own tortillas and salsas (guacamole, salsa verde, salsa de chile de árbol), grilled onions the other chopped vegetables (cilantro, onions) with the aguas frescas he normally makes.

If you could have dinner with anyone who would that be and what would you ask them?

Selena Quintanilla would be the person I would like to have dinner with. I don’t have a specific question I would like to ask her but just having dinner with her would be amazing, she seemed to be a happy person with a great personality that you can vibe with easily.

What do you absolutely love to do in your free time and why?

I love spending time with my family and friends in my free time, seeing sunsets, trying new restaurants, and going to new places or towns. But on my alone time I started enjoying going on runs and blasting music on my headphones. It has been a way of destressing.

What’s your favorite quote that you live by?

“The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.” —Walt Disney

Why do you like working at Bayside Urgent Care Center?

During the time I have been here I made so many new friendships. The environment is always fun and something new everyday, with time it is like a family here with everyone. Another reason I like working here is because I learn and see so many cases everyday.
