Radiology Technologist, Urgent Care

Urgent Care-or express care-provides a convenient and vital option for patients who need prompt medical attention for non-emergency conditions. We care for adults and children and treat a wide range of illnesses and injuries, including respiratory conditions, infections, minor fractures, sprains, and more.
Because our patients often come to us when they're not feeling their best, delivering compassionate, patient-centered care is at the heart of everything we do. Our team is committed to creating a supportive and reassuring experience for every patient we serve.
Position Overview
We are seeking a per diem Radiologic Technologist to join our team onsite at our Urgent Care in Amherst, located at 170 University Drive. This is an excellent opportunity to join a collaborative, patient-focused team in a dynamic, fast-paced environment where no two days are the same and your work has an immediate impact on patient care.
Schedule & Flexibility
Enjoy flexible scheduling within our operating hours. As a 7-day-a-week operation, Urgent Care provides care across days, evenings, weekends, and holidays, with opportunities to pick up additional shifts if desired.
Our primary scheduling need for this role is weekday evening coverage, with priority shifts typically running from 4:00 PM - 8:00 PM. Additional weekend and holiday shifts may also be available for those interested in picking up extra hours.
Per diem team members are asked to commit to at least one 4-hour shift per month, though we strive to remain flexible and collaborative when discussing scheduling availability and coverage needs.
We recognize the importance of flexibility and welcome conversations around scheduling preferences and availability. Whether you're looking for supplemental hours, occasional shifts, or a flexible schedule that fits your lifestyle, we encourage you to apply and discuss what may work best for both you and our team.
We strive to create schedules that are collaborative, supportive, and mindful of work-life balance while continuing to provide exceptional care to our patients.
