  • Obtain and document patient medical history, chief complaint, and allergies in the EHR
  • Assist physicians and providers with minor surgical procedures and examinations
  • Administer injections, perform EKGs, wound care, and other clinical duties as directed
  • Perform point-of-care testing (urinalysis, glucose, pregnancy tests, etc.) and collect lab specimens
  • Maintain accurate, timely documentation in the EHR
  • Ensure proper instrument sterilization and uphold infection control standards
  • Manage patient follow-up, including returning calls, relaying test results per provider instruction, and coordinating referrals or authorizations
  • Monitor and maintain clinical supply inventory, ordering as needed
  • Maintain compliance with HIPAA, OSHA, and all applicable healthcare regulations

What We're Looking For

  • High school diploma or GED required
  • Graduate of an accredited Medical Assistant program
  • CMA, RMA, or equivalent certification preferred
  • 1+ year of clinical back office experience preferred
  • Proficient in EHR systems
  • Excellent communication, organizational, and customer service skills
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, multi-provider clinical environment

Why You'll Love It Here

  • Be part of a respected, long-standing surgical practice with deep roots in the Orange County medical community
  • Gain hands-on clinical experience across a variety of procedures and specialties
  • Temp-to-hire path with a consistent, stable Monday - Friday schedule
