Dermatology Clinical Assistant/Scribe Position
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. This will be our third
year running this annual gap year program. We have had great success working
with recent UVA graduates and teaching them valuable hands on medical skills.
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
submit a resume, current GPA, and MCAT scores (if taken) to my email address as
soon as possible: brettkrasner@yahoo.com.
Sincerely,
Brett Krasner, M.D.
Board Certified Dermatologist
