Medical Assistant / LPN
About The Position
The Kidney Experts is hiring a Medical Assistant or LPN for its Dyersburg clinic. The role supports kidney-care providers and helps patients through consistent follow-up intended to slow kidney disease and help keep patients off dialysis. Applicants with no medical experience are welcome and will be trained as medical assistants. The clinic is a smaller, close-knit team serving Dyer County and nearby towns. Clinic hours are Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM. The position involves rooming patients, taking vital signs, updating medication lists and histories, coordinating records and results, communicating provider-directed medication changes and results to patients, maintaining charts, and preparing exam rooms. The employee collaborates with providers, scribes, and front-desk staff. The practice is gradually introducing AI tools to assist with incoming faxes, referrals, outside records, and clinical documentation. Employees will be trained on these tools as they arrive; the company says AI is intended to support the team and improve jobs, not replace staff.
