We'd like to meet you if you are patient, computer-savvy, can multitask, and have extensive critical thinking skills.

Your goal will be to ensure the smooth workflow of our clinic so that our patients receive the best possible care. Further training, experience, and interest can grow into helping assist our Acupuncturists by turning over rooms and re-stocking. Promotion to Office Manager and Insurance Biller is possible with a wage increase and responsibilities.

Our clinic culture is that we work together to ensure patients are relaxed and enjoy the environment of receiving treatment. This means that we work as a team to ensure that we are all supported.

Opportunities for Health Insurance, Retirement (401k), and promotion into Office Manager and Biller are available.

Fluent in English is a must, and bilingual in Spanish, Chinese, and other languages is a plus but not required.

Starting pay is $17.50/hr.

Qualifications

If you're currently a student at Five Branches Unversity, this would be a great opportunity to see a clinic in action and be a part of the behind-the-scenes administrative staff. This position could potentially turn into a job position as a Licensed Acupuncturist in the future as well.
