Prepare and sanitize exam rooms, instruments, and equipment before clinic and between patients
Educate patients on follow-up care, medications, and instructions provided by the physician
Answer phone calls about patient care questions, symptoms, or prescription requests

What We’re Looking For

High school diploma or equivalent required; Associate’s degree or higher preferred
At least one year customer-service experience working in a fast-paced environment, such as restaurants, retail, hospitality, or healthcare (healthcare experience not required)
Willingness and ability to travel regularly to satellite clinic locations
Ophthalmology or optometry practice experience is a plus, but not required

Skills That Help You Succeed

Professional demeanor with strong interpersonal and communication skills
Demonstrated ability to maintain accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail
Comfort using technology and learning electronic healthcare systems, including EMR/EHR
Familiarity with medical terminology, clinical procedures, diagnostic testing, and infection control (training provided)
Strong organizational and prioritization skills to support smooth and efficient clinic flows
Ability to remain calm, professional, and effective in fast-paced or high-pressure environments
Ability to work independently while also collaborating effectively within a team
Commitment to patient confidentiality and compliance with HIPAA and company policies
Openness to change and innovation, with the ability to learn, adapt to, and support evolution in a growing organization
