What are the responsibilities and job description for the Client Service Representative position at Eastern Pennsylvania Veterinary Medical Center?
Client Service Representative (Receptionist)
Eastern Pennsylvania Veterinary Medical Center (EPVMC)
EPVMC was built on a simple but powerful idea. Pets in the Lehigh Valley deserve access to advanced veterinary care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. What started as an emergency hospital has grown into a collaborative specialty center where doctors, technicians, assistants, and client care teams work together to support patients through some of the most critical moments of their lives.
Our mission is clear.
Provide exceptional medicine around the clock.
Treat every patient with compassion.
Work together as a team that respects skill, curiosity, and dedication to the profession.
Those values guide everything we do.
But before a patient is ever treated, before a technician places a catheter, before a doctor enters the room, there is one person who sets the tone for the entire experience.
You.
The Role
As a Client Service Representative at EPVMC, you are the first voice clients hear and the first face they see. In moments that are often stressful, emotional, or overwhelming, you bring calm, clarity, and compassion.
You are not "just answering phones."
You are guiding clients through uncertainty.
You are helping families make decisions.
You are the connection between the client and the medical team.
This role requires strong communication, emotional intelligence, and the ability to think clearly in a fast-paced, 24/7 hospital environment.

- Answer multi-line phones and triage calls appropriately
- Check patients in and out, ensuring accuracy of information and documentation
- Communicate clearly with medical teams regarding patient arrivals and client needs
- Provide estimates, collect payments, and review invoices with clients
- Maintain a clean, organized, and welcoming lobby environment
- Assist with scheduling appointments and managing hospital flow
- Support difficult conversations with compassion, including emergency situations and end-of-life care
- Ensure all client interactions align with hospital policies and standards
What We're Looking For
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills
- Ability to stay calm and organized in high-pressure situations
- A team-oriented mindset with a willingness to help wherever needed
- Attention to detail
- Comfort working in an emotional environment, including emergencies and euthanasia cases
- Previous customer service experience required (veterinary experience preferred but not required)

Our Comprehensive benefit package includes:
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k) with a total company match up to 4%, after 6 months of employment
