About the Role
Our growing podiatry practice is seeking a versatile, cross-trained Medical Assistant for our Edison office. This is a dual role: you'll move seamlessly between the front desk and clinical support depending on the day's flow. If you're someone who takes pride in keeping a busy office running smoothly — greeting patients one moment and assisting the physician the next — we want to hear from you.
You'll be a key member of a close-knit team and work directly alongside our provider to deliver an excellent patient experience from check-in to check-out.

- Schedule appointments and manage the daily provider schedule

- Collect co-pays and outstanding balances at point of service
- Coordinate referrals and communicate with referring offices
- Answer phones and respond to patient inquiries
Back Office / Clinical Support
- Room patients, take vitals, and document in the EMR
- Assist the physician with in-office podiatric procedures (nail care, debridement, wound care, injections)
- Set up and break down treatment rooms; maintain instrument sterilization
- Assist with casting, DME dispensing, and diabetic foot care
- Prepare and maintain clinical supplies and inventory
What We're Looking For
- Prior Medical Assistant experience in an outpatient/clinic setting
- Comfort working both front desk and clinical roles (or strong willingness to be cross-trained)
- Working knowledge of insurance verification and EMR systems
- Strong communication skills and a professional, patient-first attitude
- Ability to multitask and stay organized in a fast-paced office
- Reliable, punctual, and a team player
Preferred (not required):
- MA certification (CMA, RMA, or CCMA)
- Podiatry, surgical, or specialty-office experience
- Bilingual (English/Spanish)
- Experience with [insert your EMR system]
Schedule
- Full-time, [insert days/hours, e.g., Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM]
- No weekends / [adjust as needed]
Benefits
- Competitive hourly pay
- [Paid time off]
- [Paid holidays]
- [401(k), if offered]
