Bilingual Vascular Medical Assistant (Clinic + OBL Support)
About HOPE Amputation Prevention Center
Led by Dr. Montero-Baker, HOPE Amputation Prevention Center is a high-growth, patient-centered vascular practice focused on limb preservation, advanced endovascular intervention, and comprehensive outpatient vascular care. Our accredited Office-Based Lab (OBL) delivers hospital-level vascular procedures in an efficient, compassionate outpatient setting.
Our multidisciplinary team integrates vascular surgery, podiatry, ultrasound, and hyperbarics to prevent amputation, restore circulation, and improve long-term outcomes through standardized care pathways and coordinated follow-through.
Position Overview
The Experienced Vascular Medical Assistant (MA) plays a dual-role supporting both the outpatient vascular clinic and assisting in the Office-Based Lab (OBL) as needed.
This position is ideal for a vascular-focused MA who understands arterial and venous disease processes, limb preservation workflows, procedural preparation, and the urgency required in high-risk vascular populations.
The MA will partner closely with the vascular surgeon, Advanced Practice Providers, ultrasound team, and procedural staff to ensure efficient clinic flow, optimized patient experience, and safe procedural support when needed.
This is a high-accountability role in a performance-driven environment where clinical awareness, speed, and precision matter.
