Site: Wentworth-Douglass Hospital

Mass General Brigham relies on a wide range of professionals, including doctors, nurses, business people, tech experts, researchers, and systems analysts to advance our mission. As a not-for-profit, we support patient care, research, teaching, and community service, striving to provide exceptional care. We believe that high-performing teams drive groundbreaking medical discoveries and invite all applicants to join us and experience what it means to be part of Mass General Brigham.

Job Summary

Join a team where your organization, communication skills, and commitment to exceptional service help create a positive experience for every patient. Wentworth Health Partners Cardiology provides expert care in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of heart disease, offering a full range of cardiology services including general and interventional cardiology, heart failure care, electrophysiology, device implants, anticoagulation management, and more.

We are seeking a full-time, 40-hour Clinic/Practice Assistant to support our cardiology practice Monday through Friday between 8:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. This position is based at 19 Old Rollinsford Road in Dover, NH, with a secondary location at 67 Corporate Drive in Portsmouth, NH.

Why This Role Matters

Clinic/Practice Assistants are essential to the day-to-day flow of our community-based physician practices. In this role, you will serve as a key point of contact for patients, families, clinicians, and colleagues-helping ensure visits run smoothly, questions are routed appropriately, and each patient receives a welcoming, high-quality experience.

Support practice leadership, clinicians, and peers with day-to-day operational needs.
Serve as a resource for scheduling, registration, and billing systems, including assisting or training others when appropriate.

While we do our best to keep employees assigned to their home practice and location, team members may be asked to float to other departments within the Wentworth Health Partners system when needed for cross-coverage, staffing support, or other extenuating circumstances.
