About The Position

Certified Medical Assistant needed for an adult outpatient orthopedic spine and pain management clinic. The clinic primarily treats adults with back pain involving the cervical, lumbar, and thoracic spine, with limited in-office steroid and pain-relief injections. The clinic averages 45 or more patients daily and has 4–6 rooms. The Medical Assistant may work among different physicians according to clinic needs and must be flexible rather than expecting to remain assigned to one physician. Scheduling and orientation are per clinic needs. Navy blue scrubs are required and are not provided. The CMA must bring their own stethoscope.

This is a 13-week contract opportunity. The schedule is 40 hours per week, with 8-hour day shifts from 08:00 to 17:00. There are no call or weekend requirements. Local candidates are accepted, and the clinic accepts first-time travelers. The clinic requires an interview with the candidate before making an offer. RTO after booking is not allowed; call-offs or additional RTO may result in cancellation and a do-not-return designation.
