• Answering incoming calls and providing exceptional customer service
• Scheduling consultations, surgeries, and follow-up appointments
• Following up with patients before and after procedures
• Verifying medical and dental insurance eligibility and benefits
• Communicating with referring dental offices and healthcare providers
• Managing referrals, records, imaging, and patient documentation
• Supporting day-to-day front-office operations
• Helping wherever needed to keep the practice and patient experience running smoothly

What We're Looking For

• Previous oral surgery experience required
• Experience with IV sedation and surgical procedures preferred
• Comfortable working both clinically and administratively
• Strong communication and phone skills
• Professional, dependable, organized, and detail-oriented
• Able to confidently communicate with patients regarding scheduling, insurance, and treatment
• Takes initiative and recognizes what needs to be done without requiring constant direction
• Comfortable working in a growing startup environment where responsibilities evolve
• Team-oriented with a genuine willingness to contribute in all areas of the practice
• Experience with Open Dental is a plus
• Experience verifying dental and/or medical insurance benefits is a plus
