Medical Assistant

Positively Pediatrics is one of the premier medical practices in the Linden/Fenton area. We are dedicated to making your child’s visit the best medical experience that it can be. We have 2 wonderfully skilled pediatricians and 1 nurse practitioner with an amazing personality to match. Luckily, we have the clinical side well-covered, but we can’t run this office alone.
We need some superstars to help us in the office and on the support staff side to make this office a powerhouse. The one thing I have always hated is when you look at online reviews of a doctor’s office and the comments often start: “I love the doctor but the staff is rude, horrible, snotty, etc.” Why can’t an office have amazing providers as well as awesome front staff, medical assistants, and office manager? We are a medical practice where we are just as proud of our receptionists and medical assistants as we are of the care we give in the exam rooms.
Does this sound like a place that you would like to work? Are you an individual that is committed to giving top notch service with a smile on your face? If you are, we have a medical assistant position that we would like to fill with a competent, caring person like you. Please read below and see if one of our many positions interest you.
