Position Description: Looking for a medical receptionist/medical assistant who would like to join an enthusiastic and energetic team focused on medicine, surgery and cosmetics. Responsibilities include greeting patients upon arrival, signing them in and obtaining insurance information as well as providing patients with intake forms and copies of office policies and procedures. Must be comfortable answering phones and processing payments for patients as well as scheduling appointments through the EMR. Medical assistant responsibilities will include triaging and escorting patients to exam rooms and taking a full patient history (as a third-year medical student would do) and documenting pertinent information including medications/allergies in patients’ charts. Other duties will include ensuring all related reports, labs and information are filed, keeping exam rooms stocked with adequate medical supplies, maintaining instruments and taking phone messages and providing feedback and answers to any patient/pharmacy calls.
Hands-on experience will be gained when the volunteer can show that he/she is ready to step up and assist with medical procedures including biopsies, surgical excisions and cosmetic laser treatment. Lots of teaching is involved during sessions so the individual must be naturally curious and inquisitive.
Qualifications: Must be attentive to detail, punctual, and comfortable talking with patients. Must be willing to put in the work to learn and are not overcommitted with classes/MCAT studying or already have another job. You will learn a great deal but must put in the time and effort as this is more than a shadowing position.
Application Instructions : Please send your CV to drjane@janeyoomd.com and your availability.
