This opportunity is designed for individuals interested in pursuing a career in the medical or healthcare sector and wish to gain practical experience before continuing their education in professional healthcare programs.

As a Gap Year Medical Assistant Intern, you will engage in a comprehensive, hands-on learning experience that encompasses both clinical and administrative functions. Responsibilities include patient education, rooming patients, collecting medical histories, assisting with physical exams, learning billing processes, and performing various administrative tasks. You will also have the unique opportunity to shadow our skilled clinical team during surgical procedures and receive valuable mentorship.

This is a full-time, paid internship, and positions may be available for a commitment of 18-24 months.

About Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine:

At Genesis, our mission is to empower patients to lead active lives by providing accessible, high-quality orthopedic care for all, not just those with commercial insurance. We pride ourselves on our innovative care delivery model that ensures affordability without compromising excellence. With approximately 75% of our patient base being Medicaid-eligible, we have earned recognition as one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in the United States by Inc. 5000.

If you are passionate about healthcare, looking for a dynamic and mission-driven workplace, and eager to make a difference in the community, we invite you to apply and be part of our dedicated team!

Requirements

Applicants should be recent graduates with a demonstrated interest in healthcare. The ideal candidate is a quick learner, has strong communication skills, and a commitment to patient-centered care.

Please submit a resume and a cover letter explaining your qualifications and motivation for applying. Include any relevant volunteer work or previous internship experience.

Positions are available with flexible start dates around January, 2026, ideally looking for a commitment of 18 months.

Benefits

  • Paid time off

  • Support and mentorship to matriculate into competitive graduate medical education programs

About Genesis: The mission of Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is to improve the quality of life of our patients by offering advanced orthopedic and sports medicine care with personalized service and understanding of each individual’s needs. Our goal is to enhance every patient’s quality of life by caring for the whole person—physically and emotionally—getting them back in shape as quickly and completely as we can. We pride ourselves on caring for others, not only restoring their bodies and comfort, but building relationships that will last. This has been the basis for our standard of excellence and the source of our impeccable reputation. The practice values: Compassion (we are about what patients are going through), Excellence (we pursue exceptional quality and continuous improvement), Humility (I sacrifice so we can all gain), Faith (what others believe is impossible, we believe is possible), and Passion (we bring optimism and energy to ever task, interaction, and project).
