This is an opportunity to join the practice of Dr. Adam D. Cohen, an experienced internal medicine physician whose MDVIP-affiliated practice is built around highly personalized, relationship-based primary care. The practice maintains a smaller patient population, allowing the team to provide attentive, individualized care and a welcoming experience for each patient. In this role, you will work closely with Dr. Cohen and the office team to support both clinical care and day-to-day practice operations. The ideal candidate is warm, professional, highly organized, and confident performing hands-on Medical Assistant responsibilities independently. Because patients receive a high-touch level of care, we are looking for someone who genuinely enjoys getting to know patients, communicates with empathy, and takes pride in creating an exceptional experience from the moment a patient enters the office. This is an onsite position in Great Neck, NY and is best suited for an experienced MA who is comfortable working independently and becoming an integral part of a close-knit practice team. ## What You’ll Do - Perform hands-on clinical duties including EKGs, blood draws, vital signs, and other routine Medical Assistant responsibilities - Prepare patients for examinations and assist the physician during visits and procedures - Support comprehensive physicals, wellness visits, screenings, and diagnostic testing - Accurately document patient information in the electronic health record - Maintain organized, fully stocked exam rooms and clinical supplies - Assist with coordinating follow-up care, referrals, testing, and patient needs - Communicate clearly and compassionately with patients regarding appointments and next steps - Help maintain an efficient and organized daily patient schedule - Greet and assist patients while creating a warm, welcoming, and professional office experience - Answer incoming calls and help patients with scheduling and general questions - Assist with patient check-in and check-out - Maintain accurate patient records and administrative documentation - Work closely with Dr. Cohen and the rest of the practice team to anticipate needs and keep the office running smoothly - Build strong relationships with patients and contribute positively to the practice’s personalized approach to care ## What We’re Looking For - Medical Assistant certification or relevant MA training/credentials - Previous Medical Assistant experience required — this is not an entry-level position - Ability to independently perform blood draws, EKGs, vital signs, and other routine clinical duties - Experience in primary care, internal medicine, family medicine, or a similar outpatient setting strongly preferred - Excellent interpersonal and patient communication skills - Warm, compassionate, and professional demeanor - Strong organizational skills and exceptional attention to detail - Comfortable using electronic health records and learning new technology - Ability to manage both clinical and administrative responsibilities - Dependable, proactive, and comfortable working as part of a small, close-knit team - Someone who takes pride in providing a highly personalized patient experience ## Why Join - Join a well-established internal medicine practice in Great Neck - Work closely alongside an experienced physician in a smaller, relationship-focused practice - Develop meaningful, long-term relationships with patients rather than working in a high-volume clinical environment - Be part of a close-knit team where your work has a direct impact on the patient experience - Support a model of primary care focused on prevention, comprehensive wellness, accessibility, and individualized attention - Enjoy a professional environment where compassion, responsiveness, and attention to detail are central to how patients are cared for ## About Florence Health ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Florence Health is a technology-driven healthcare company operating a practice-isolated Accountable Care Organization (ACO) for independent primary care physicians, designed to improve outcomes and lower costs through transparent value-based care models. - **Entity Type**: Private – no disclosed funding rounds; offers company equity per career listings. - **Headquarters**: The company lists both Arlington, VA (on its official About page) and Atlanta, GA (on Built In’s profile) as key locations.
