Job description

Position: Health Coach / Medical Assistant

Company: Medi-Weightloss® of Georgetown & Round Rock

Part Time. Tuesday–Saturday. [With path to Full Time]

Tue 12pm–7pm, Wed 7am-6pm, Thur 8am-12pm, Fri 8am-12pm, Sat 8am-2pm [Ramping up schedule]

Closed Sunday and Monday. No nights. Closed major holidays.

About Us: Medi-Weightloss® of Georgetown and Round Rock is a physician-supervised weight loss practice. Our patients come back every week, often for a year or more. That changes the job. You are not moving strangers through a room — you learn names, you see the numbers move, and you are part of why they move.

We are looking for someone who wants both halves of this work: the clinical skill and the coaching.

Why Join Us:

• A schedule you keep. Tuesday through Saturday, closed Sunday and Monday. No nights. And we keep trained temp staff on call, so when you need time off, you take it.

• Pay we will state up front. $20.00 per hour, reviewed as your skills and responsibilities grow.

• Room to grow into coaching. This role starts clinical and opens into patient coaching as you learn our program. How fast is up to you.

• Real training. Full program protocol, body composition analysis, and the coaching methods behind our results.

• Benefits. Paid time off, paid holidays, and health insurance, subject to plan documents and eligibility. Full‑time team members are also eligible for the Medi-Weightloss® program at no cost. Participation is voluntary.

Primary Responsibilities:

Patient vitals, EKG, phlebotomy, injections, patient coaching, and front office support. We value clinical skill paired with the ability to have an honest, encouraging conversation with a patient about a hard subject.

Administrative Duties:

• Answer and route calls on a multi‑line phone system

• Conduct follow‑up calls to discuss patient progress and address concerns

• Refer non‑routine, sensitive, or complex requests to the appropriate staff member

• Greet patients and maintain a friendly, professional environment

• Monitor daily inventory levels of clinical and office supplies

• Scan and upload documents into patient files daily

• Participate in clinic marketing efforts and community outreach

Clinical Duties (performed under physician delegation and supervision):

• Obtain patient vitals, body composition measurements, and EKG; perform phlebotomy and urinalysis

• Administer IM injections

• Prepare laboratory order forms and obtain patient laboratory results

• Process and coordinate provider‑ordered referrals

• Document progress notes and patient data in the EMR

• Maintain a clean, stocked, inspection‑ready clinical space

Patient Coaching:

• Collect intake information and present the Medi-Weightloss® program. The physician or nurse practitioner performs the clinical evaluation and sets the treatment plan.

• Review progress with patients each visit and encourage adherence to the provider's plan

• Educate patients on nutrition, activity, and behavior change

• Follow up between visits to answer questions and keep patients on track

Requirements:

• Hands‑on phlebotomy experience. We will ask you to demonstrate a draw during the interview.

• Ability to place a 12‑lead EKG without a reference

• Comfort administering IM injections

• Ability to discuss weight, nutrition, and measurements with patients as a routine clinical topic

• Strong communication skills and genuine patience

Medical Assistant certification is welcome and shortens your ramp, but it is not required. We hire on demonstrated skill.

A plus: front office, insurance and VOB experience, EMR proficiency, a background in nutrition or exercise, or Spanish fluency.

Salary: $20.00 per hour

Employment is at will. Nothing in this posting is a contract or a guarantee of employment, compensation, benefits, hours, or promotion. Vitality Health Partners PLLC & Kaya Wellness LLC dba Medi-Weightloss® is an Equal Opportunity Employer and provides reasonable accommodation upon request.
