Clinical Associate

About the role

We are hiring a Clinical Associate: a clinically trained professional who works alongside our physicians and nurse practitioners every day, in West Hollywood and Downtown Los Angeles. You will room and prepare patients, draw blood and give injections after our training sign-off, document visits as a scribe, prepare charts before visits, coordinate referrals and results, teach patients from clinician-approved material, and help us build better clinical workflows.

This role fits someone who trained as a physician, in the United States or anywhere else, and wants to work in US primary care while building their own path forward. We pay every hour, teach you our systems, and after six months we help with the next step: up to $5,250 a year in educational assistance, two paid hours a week of protected study or shadowing time, a clinician mentor, and documented experience letters for your applications.

What you'll do

• Room patients, take vitals and history, give injections and draw blood (after our sign-off), run point-of-care tests and EKGs, always with a licensed clinician on site.
• Scribe visits in real time and prepare charts before patients arrive.
• Enter and track the orders, referrals and prior authorizations our clinicians decide on; route results and messages by protocol.
• Teach patients from clinician-approved material and make follow-up calls.
• Help keep our quality registries and design better intake, rooming and documentation workflows, including the clinical content behind our AI tools, reviewed by our clinicians.

Qualifications

• A medical degree (MD, MBBS, DO or equivalent) from an accredited school in any country, and at least a year of hands-on clinical experience.
• Clear, kind communication in English; Spanish, Russian or Tagalog is a plus.
• Comfort with computers and electronic health records; you can type as you listen.
• BLS/CPR within 30 days of starting (we cover it), and authorization to work in the United States.
• Warmth and respect for our community: LGBTQ+ patients, sexual health, HIV prevention and care, gender-affirming care.

Pay, hours and benefits

$23.00 to $30.00 per hour, full-time (40 hours a week), hourly and non-exempt with overtime under California law. This is a good-faith range for the position; where you start depends on your clinical experience and your English. Paid sick leave and paid time off per our handbook, health benefits per our plan, and the six-month Pathway described above.

Important

This is not a licensed clinical role. The Clinical Associate works under the supervision of our licensed clinicians and does not diagnose, treat, prescribe or triage. A California medical license is not required.
