The Medical Assistant helps ensure the day of evaluation is organized, professional, efficient, and ready for the evaluating physician and examinee. This position is primarily focused on examination-day and physician support, including preparing for the evaluation, assisting with the flow of the workday, obtaining routine measurements and vital signs as directed by the physician and within applicable scope, managing examination documents, materials, equipment, and communicating operational needs.
