I look forward to coming into work every day I absolutely love the people I work with and the patients are amazing. The management is good, there has been a lot of changes with Rivas Weight loss I feel that the managers is doing a good job thriving for better things with the company.  One of the things I love about this company is the hours and how flexible they are when it comes to anything unexpected. A typical work day usually starts at 6am for us and we just make sure everything is prepared for the day. As the MA I make sure we have everything that is needed for the day for the patients in the morning. We also work the phones too.  I love that we have a 3 day weekend every week too.  In general Rivas weight loss is a great place to work!! :)

What is the best part of working at the company?
Terrible place to work. The management has no idea what they are doing and no direction . There is a lack of communication and endless hoops to get any answers. If you sense something is off its because it is. Complete lack of leadership and care for employees. They are not honest and operate on some very corrupt values.  

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Lack of communication and organization.

While working at Rivas Medical weight loss, it was a fun experience. However, too many managers taking over 5 offices. Too many managers and not enough receptionist. Managers didn't care about workers, doctors or nurses during my experience. While working, I have not met one manager. I felt as though I could not grow in this company and further what I felt was best for me and my future in the receptionist field.

Rivas offers a great product and has great employees and patients. Unfortunately that quality is not matched by its managerial staff. They are so busy opening new clinics that they are less attentive to the needs of current employees. They contract out HR so there is a disconnect there. Overall, it is a good place to work. Maybe in time the quality of management will catch up with the quality of care provided by their excellent staff and practitioners.

Working at Rivas was and is an awesome experience! You're apart of amazing weightloss journeys. I love my job, the flexibility is amazing the pay is decent and the room for growth is pretty nice as well. The down side to the job is not enough staff which kinda makes the environment a bit stressful at times. Other than that I really enjoy working there.... I really didn't want to leave but moving and commuting to work 1.5 hours away is really taking a toll.

This is a great first time job for anyone who wants to start jumping in the medical career. I enjoyed my stay working their, they did have a lot of turnover but from what I have heard they are making some changes to improve the work environment. They also give holiday bonuses which as very nice.

I have worked for Rivas Medical Weight Loss for seven years now. I am incredibly proud to be a part of this company's team. The benefits that come from working here are above and beyond. The team is very supportive and always willing to help each other out, making for a truly enjoyable work environment.

They make you work 1 yr prior to giving you health insurance and when it's close to the 1 yr they use the Maryland  at will law to let you go without a reason. Saw them do this to several employee even ones with kids.
