About The Position

Engage in both clinical care and front-office interactions, fostering meaningful participant relationships while maintaining hands-on medical responsibilities, unlike traditional Medical Assistant positions focused solely on back-office or clinical work

Medical insurance coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
Work/life balance - We mean it! 17 days of personal time off (PTO), 12 holidays observed annually, and 6 sick days
401K savings + match
Comprehensive compensation package including base pay and bonus
And additional benefits!

Prepare participants for appointments, including but not limited to setting up exam rooms, checking participants in and out, and obtaining an accurate history of illness
