Job description

About this role

Role Overview A well-established medical/aesthetic practice in Los Angeles, California, open Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday. We're hiring a part-time, remote Virtual Assistant to own front desk operations — confirming appointments, responding to patient text messages, and keeping the schedule running smoothly across multiple providers. This is a female-only role: the practice serves a predominantly female patient base discussing personal medical matters, and patients have indicated they are more comfortable communicating with a woman. The role is 10 hours per week, split across two shifts per working day (roughly 1–1.5 hours in the…

Responsibilities

  • Confirm the following day's appointments by text via Ring Central — e.g., message all Wednesday patients on Tuesday to confirm.
  • Respond to incoming patient text messages promptly throughout assigned shifts; the practice communicates with patients exclusively by text, never by phone call.
  • Schedule and manage bookings in Dr. Chrono (already configured) across multiple providers — Jolene, Elise, Birdie, and Neta.
  • Ask new/incoming patients what service they're booking (facial, massage/physical therapy, etc.) and route them to the right provider.
  • Collect insurance card details and date of birth/ID from new patients so eligibility can be verified by the practice owner.

Qualifications and requirements

  • Female candidate — required, given the practice's patient base and the sensitive, personal nature of conversations.
  • Strong, clear English communication skills, both written and any verbal interaction.
  • Experience with Dr. Chrono and Ring Central preferred; willingness and ability to learn quickly is required if not already familiar.
  • Comfortable working independently and staying responsive during assigned shift windows — this is a texting-first, fast-response role.
  • Reliable and consistent; this is a small, family-run practice where front desk coverage directly affects the business.
