About this role

At Clinica Family Health & Wellness, we believe everyone deserves high-quality, compassionate healthcare close to home. We are a nonprofit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) that provides comprehensive, affordable medical, dental, behavioral health, pharmacy, and specialty behavioral care services. We are committed to being a healthcare home for our patients, a place where they receive coordinated, whole-person care from a team that supports their health and well-being at every stage of life. 

“This is a hard job that is not your typical reception position. You use your passion about how you work, helping your community. You will problem solve issues that don’t have a clear answer, manage large amounts of paperwork, and work with a wide range of people. On the flip side, the connections you will make in the front desk role are valuable to the patients. Patients will often request to work with their “favorite” front desk person and will bring burritos for the team to show their appreciation.” ~ Maggie Torres, Clinic Operations Manager (and previous front desk worker)

You will help patients in a community health center with scheduling, co-payment, paperwork and work with the clinic team to ensure great patient experience.

  • Are you bilingual in English and Spanish?

You Will:
