ABOUT TrufaMED

TrufaMED is a physician-led urgent care and concierge medicine clinic in Surfside, steps from Bal Harbour and Miami Beach. We are Florida's only Joint Commission accredited urgent care, with on-site X-ray, lab testing, and ultrasound, plus IV therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and concierge membership programs. Our team speaks 8 languages and holds a 5.0 star Google rating across hundreds of reviews. The front desk is the first face every patient sees, and we hold it to the same standard as our clinical care: calm, warm, and precise.

This role is a strong fit for students in pre-med, nursing, biology, psychology, or health administration who want real patient-facing experience inside a working clinic, alongside board-certified physicians and registered nurses.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

- Greet and check in urgent care and wellness patients, and keep the lobby running smoothly during busy walk-in periods

- Register patients in our electronic systems and schedule visits, IV therapy, and hyperbaric sessions in our booking software

- Verify insurance, collect copays and self-pay payments, and keep payment information on file per clinic policy

- Answer phones and messages: hours, directions, pricing, appointment changes, and general questions

- Apply clinic policies consistently, including cancellation windows and self-pay consent forms, following your training materials

- Route clinical questions correctly: medical concerns get evaluated by a provider in person, never diagnosed over the phone

- Support both sides of the practice: walk-in urgent care and the wellness and concierge side

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

- High school diploma or equivalent

- Fluent English; professional phone manner and clear written communication

- Reliable, punctual, and comfortable handling payments accurately

- Able to work on-site in Surfside, FL

- Comfortable learning new software (patient registration, scheduling, and payment systems)

- Discretion with patient information; HIPAA training provided and required

PREFERRED SKILLS

- Spanish fluency (a large share of our patients prefer Spanish); additional languages welcome

- Customer service, hospitality, or front desk experience

- Prior medical office, scheduling software, or EMR exposure

- Interest in a healthcare career

WHAT YOU GET

- Structured onboarding: a written study guide, shadowing, and a competency check before you fly solo

- Direct exposure to urgent care operations, insurance workflows, and concierge medicine

- A small, tight team where your work is visible and your questions get answered by physicians and nurses, not a call center

- A calm, high-standard workplace in a beachside neighborhood setting
