About The Position

We are seeking an experienced Medical Assistant (MA) to join a well-established, patient-centered internal medicine practice in Great Neck, NY. This is an opportunity to join the practice of Dr. Adam D. Cohen, an experienced internal medicine physician whose MDVIP-affiliated practice is built around highly personalized, relationship-based primary care. The practice maintains a smaller patient population, allowing the team to provide attentive, individualized care and a welcoming experience for each patient. In this role, you will work closely with Dr. Cohen and the office team to support both clinical care and day-to-day practice operations. The ideal candidate is warm, professional, highly organized, and confident performing hands-on Medical Assistant responsibilities independently. Because patients receive a high-touch level of care, we are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys getting to know patients, communicates with empathy, and takes pride in creating an exceptional experience from the moment a patient enters the office. This is an onsite position in Great Neck, NY and is best suited for an experienced MA who is comfortable working independently and becoming an integral part of a close-knit practice team.
