Your responsibilities will include:

  • Welcome patients and create a warm, comfortable, and personalized experience from the moment they arrive
  • Room patients, obtain medical histories, vital signs, medications, allergies, and clinical photographs
  • Assist the surgeon during consultations, in-office procedures, surgical cases, and post-operative visits
  • Provide patient education and support before and after procedures, ensuring patients feel informed and confident in their care
  • Prepare patients for surgery, including pre-operative visits, consents, instructions, and garment fittings
  • Assist with surgical room preparation, instrument sterilization, medication documentation, and maintaining a safe clinical environment
  • Complete accurate medical documentation, EMR updates, superbills, and surgical notes
  • Coordinate patient follow-up, prescriptions, lab testing, and medical clearances
  • Recommend medical-grade skincare products and aesthetic treatments when appropriate
  • Maintain organized exam rooms, supplies, and inventory to support efficient daily operations
  • Assist with patient communication, scheduling, and administrative tasks as needed

Benefits include:

  • Competitive pay based on experience
  • Paid Time Off (PTO) and paid holidays
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance options
  • Retirement plan with profit-sharing opportunities
  • Employee discounts on medical-grade skincare products and aesthetic treatments
