The Opportunity

As a Medical Secretary, you will play a vital role in supporting our consultant clients and ensuring patients receive an excellent experience throughout their healthcare journey.

Working closely with a dedicated Patient Administrator, you'll become a trusted extension of your clients' practices, managing appointments, handling patient enquiries, coordinating clinic schedules, and ensuring day-to-day operations run smoothly.

• Processing medical dictation and correspondence
• Managing patient and client enquiries efficiently and professionally
