The right person will be clinically skilled, warm, mature, organized, and interested in helping deliver the thoughtful, personalized care Cornerstone Pediatrics is known for.

The right person becomes an important clinical extension of the physician — helping families feel cared for, keeping visits organized, following through on details, and supporting the high-quality, relationship-centered pediatric care that makes Cornerstone different. This position has the opportunity to grow into a Clinical Lead, Practice Coordinator, or Practice Manager role over time.

For the right person, this role can grow into a Clinical Lead, Practice Coordinator, or Practice Manager role. Prior management experience is helpful but not required.
