I am a dermatologist in private
practice in Charlottesville. My office is located on Pantops and I work with
another dermatologist who graduated from UVA, Dr. Bridget Bryer.
We are looking to hire a student who is considering taking a year
off from their studies prior to enrollment in medical school. We are in need of
a dermatology clinical assistant/scribe who would bring patients back from the
waiting room, take an initial history of the medical problems to be discussed,
generate prescriptions to be sent electronically, help with surgical
procedures, and provide medical education regarding dermatological conditions
and treatment. This individual does not have to have any dermatology or
surgical knowledge at all. We will teach all that is needed. This is a paid
position.
This position would be of great benefit to someone wanting or
needing to take a year off from their studies. This would qualify as excellent
experience for a medical school application. After working with us for a
year, the individual would be comfortable seeing live patients, taking succinct
medical histories, assisting with surgical procedures, interfacing with
electronic medical records, and well versed in dermatological diseases and
treatments.
We will be making our decision in the coming months. Interested
applicants should contact me via my email address as soon as possible: brettkrasner@yahoo.com.
