Job description

Be the First Impression That Sets the Standard.

Exceptional patient care begins long before treatment starts.

It begins with the person who answers the phone with confidence, welcomes every patient with warmth, keeps the clinic running smoothly, and makes people feel they came to the right place.

Phoenix Physical Therapy is opening our newest outpatient rehabilitation clinic in the heart of Koreatown, and we're looking for an outstanding bilingual (Spanish/English) Medical Front Desk Coordinator to become one of the founding members of our team.

This isn't just a receptionist position. You'll be the operational heartbeat of the clinic - coordinating patient flow, supporting our clinical staff, communicating with attorneys, insurance companies, and patients, and helping create an exceptional experience from the moment someone walks through our doors.

Because we serve a diverse patient community, the ability to communicate fluently with both English- and Spanish-speaking patients is essential to this role.

If you're organized, dependable, enjoy helping people, and thrive in a fast-paced medical environment, we'd love to meet you.

About Phoenix Physical Therapy

Our Koreatown clinic has been thoughtfully designed from the ground up, giving both patients and staff a professional, welcoming, and efficient environment where everyone can do their best work.

About the Role

As our Medical Front Desk Coordinator, you'll be responsible for keeping the clinic organized, efficient, and welcoming every single day.

You’ll coordinate appointments, greet patients, answer phones, verify information, assist with scheduling, communicate with attorneys and medical providers when needed, and ensure our clinicians have the administrative support necessary to focus on patient care. A large share of our patients are Spanish-speaking, so you’ll move comfortably between English and Spanish throughout the day.

You’ll work closely with Physical Therapists, Physical Therapist Assistants, rehabilitation aides, and leadership while becoming an essential part of the patient experience.

No two days are exactly alike, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys solving problems, staying organized, and working with people.
