This position is suited to an experienced professional who can transition seamlessly between supporting our clinical team and managing a busy front desk.

Excellent verbal and written communication, discretion, attention to detail, and dependable follow-through. Preferred Experience: Two or more years of experience in aesthetics, plastic surgery, or dermatology strongly preferred. Experience supporting cosmetic consultations, procedures, and preoperative and postoperative visits. Familiarity with Nextech. Clinical Responsibilities: Prepare and room patients for consultations, treatments, and procedures. Obtain patient histories and maintain accurate electronic records. Assist clinicians during consultations and in-office procedures within the role’s permitted duties. Reinforce clinician-provided patient instructions. Maintain treatment rooms, supplies, and standardized clinical photography. Front Desk Responsibilities: Welcome patients and provide attentive, professional service. Manage calls, scheduling, check-in and checkout, and payments. Coordinate appointment flow and communicate closely with the clinical team. Maintain an organized reception area and protect patient confidentiality. To Apply: Submit an updated résumé clearly outlining your medical assistant certification and experience in both clinical support and medical front desk operations. This is not an entry-level or front desk-only position. Please apply only if your background meets the required qualifications above.
