About the Role

We are a newly established, community‑focused family practice. This role is ideal for someone who leads with empathy, communicates clearly, and upholds strong professionalism while comfortably wearing multiple hats in a small, steady clinic. You will:

Support physicians and nurse practitioners in delivering timely, patient‑centred care.

Adapt to variable patient volumes at launch and step in across both front‑desk and clinical tasks as needed.

Conduct additional tasks as trained/authorized: ECGs, rapid tests, swabs, point‑of‑care tests, vision/hearing screens, dressing changes, suture removal.

Coordinate referrals, e‑faxing, requisitions, recalls, reminders, and specialist/diagnostic bookings. Manage results and messages in Juno EMR appropriately (assign, flag, and document per clinic policy). Support physicians with forms completion workflows and chart preparation. Use de‑escalation skills tactfully; maintain a calm, professional presence.

Administration & Operations

Front desk coverage: check‑in/out, OHIP/third‑party billing details at intake, appointment scheduling, and payment processing for uninsured services. Scan, index, and maintain accurate electronic charts; uphold PHIPA privacy/confidentiality. Inventory management: order, receive, and rotate supplies; maintain vaccine logs and cold chain records. Participate in continuous quality improvement (CQI), safety huddles, and process optimization.

What You Bring

1+ year experience in a primary care, family practice, community clinic, or ambulatory care setting (preferred). Demonstrated empathy, listening, and clear written/verbal communication; excellent patient rapport. Strong professionalism, discretion, and reliability with a proactive, solutions‑oriented mindset. Solid organization and time management; able to prioritize in a fast‑paced environment with attention to detail. Comfortable with technology; Juno EMR experience is an asset (training provided).
