Apex Heart Care of North Texas is a physician-owned cardiology practice hiring a Front Office Assistant / Marketing Representative for our Denton and Plano clinics. This is one job with two sides: you run the front desk, and you're the person who keeps us connected to the primary care offices that send us patients. Our clinical team is one cardiologist and one nurse practitioner, so you'd work directly with both every day, know our patients by name, and have real say in how the clinic runs. No call center, no layers of management.
Full-time, with part-time considered for the right person.
We're hiring local. These roles are for people already living near Denton or Plano. We don't offer relocation — we'd rather hire a neighbor who plans to stay.
