Medical Assistant — ENT / Sinus Surgery Practice
Breathe Better Institute of Huntsville
3810 Governors Drive SW, Suite 200, Huntsville, AL 35805
Full-time, on-site
About us
Breathe Better Institute is a specialized ENT and sinus surgery practice in Huntsville. We focus on getting patients real relief from chronic sinus and nasal conditions, often through in-office procedures. We're a smaller, growing practice, which means the right person will have real ownership of their work and direct contact with the physicians and leadership rather than being one cog in a large system.
What you'll do
- Room patients, take vitals, document chief complaints, and update medical histories in our EHR (ModMed)
- Assist physicians during in-office procedures, including sinus and nasal procedures (setup, instrument handling, patient support, room turnover)
- Prepare and stock exam and procedure rooms; maintain instruments and supplies
- Perform basic clinical tasks: injections, specimen handling, and procedure assistance as directed
- Manage clinical documentation and assist with prior authorizations and referral coordination
- Communicate with patients about prep, aftercare, and follow-up
- Maintain a clean, compliant clinical environment (OSHA, HIPAA)
What we're looking for
- High school diploma or equivalent required
- Completion of an accredited medical assistant program; CMA (AAMA) or RMA certification preferred
- Prior MA experience in a specialty practice; ENT or surgical experience is a strong plus
- Comfort assisting with in-office procedures and the ability to stay composed in a hands-on clinical setting
- Working knowledge of an EHR; ModMed experience is a plus but not required
- Strong organization, reliability, and patient-facing communication
- Must be able to pass a background check (conducted after a contingent offer)
What we offer
- Competitive pay based on experience and certification
- Medical insurance with employer contribution toward premiums; optional dental and vision; HSA available with eligible plans
- 401(k) with employer match
- Paid time off (combined vacation/personal/sick) and paid federal holidays
- Scrub allowance — up to $500 toward your initial scrubs at hire, plus an annual credit for replacements
- Ongoing training and professional development in a modern ENT clinic
- Direct deposit, supportive leadership, and an open-door environment
