Medical Admin / Executive Assistant - Rheumatology & Internal Medicine
About the Role
We're seeking a highly organized Executive Assistant to bring order and structure to the day-to-day operations of a busy NYC rheumatology and internal medicine practice. Things have gotten a bit scattered, and the practice needs someone who can step in as the central point of coordination — someone who can, in the practice's own words, help "put everything back together."
You'll work closely with the lead physician and the broader office team — including practice leadership and the existing patient coordinator — making sure calendars, emails, communication, and administrative follow-ups are all tracked and nothing slips through the cracks. This role touches nearly every part of how the practice runs day to day, without requiring deep EMR use — the focus here is organization, coordination, and communication, not clinical documentation.
Given the practice's patient population — many of whom are older, detail-oriented, and expect a high level of professionalism and clarity — exceptional, confident spoken communication is essential, including comfort speaking directly with patients on the phone when needed.
What You'll Do
Calendar & Email Management
- Manage and organize the practice's Google Workspace
- Manage calendars and scheduling across the team
- Stay on top of the physician's and practice leadership's emails, flagging what needs attention
