Surrey, Canada Panorama Optometry Full time

Job description

**Optometric Technician Needed**

Do you love gadgets and gizmos as much as you love working with people? Love to geek out on science/medical marvel TV shows until way past your bedtime? Then we want to talk to you about our Medical Secretary/Technician position.

Our busy optical practice needs a Medical Secretary/Technician to help us give patients a 5-star experience every time they’re here. This is a full-time position at our office.

**What you’ll be doing as a Medical Technician**:
As a Medical Technician, you’re the “nurse” of the Eye Care practice. You’ll be handing a lot of the important work that goes on to set the doctor and the patient up for success. As the first person to work with each patient during their appointment, you’ll be the one that calms their nerves, gets them in a great mood, and shows them that we are there to serve them in every way we can

Some of your duties will include:

- Taking the patient back to the exam room and verifying their medical history
- Spending 15+ minutes with each patient before the doctor comes in, performing duties such as measuring retinal function, peripheral vision, and retinal thickness; and taking retinal photographs. (You’ll be using the same type of instruments NASA uses on the space station)
- “Refracting” the patient, which means starting the process of finding the patient’s eyeglass prescription before the doctor comes in to refine it.
- Taking notes for the doctor during the patient’s exam.
- Ordering proper tests based on the doctor’s diagnoses.
- **Consistent cross-training for optimal career growth**:

- Properly coding procedures so everything gets paid by the patient’s insurance.

**Why this job is more than a job**

In Eye Care, we change people’s lives. We help grandma and grandpa keep their independence by saving their eyesight. We help kids get better grades because they can finally see the board We prevent devastating traffic accidents, allow parents to take in every detail on their children’s faces, and help people enjoy a higher quality of life - because life is so much better when you can SEE.

If you want a career where you can directly impact the well-being of your community, this is it

**Experience Needed**:
Must be available Monday, Tuesday and friday. Experience is a plus, but it’s certainly not required. We offer paid training to the right person with a great attitude, a helpful heart, and a love of learning We will make sure you’re totally confident working with the equipment and patients before you start handling these tasks alone. We won’t throw you to the wolves

**Skills required - If these sound like you, please apply**
- You can make anybody feel comfortable, from squirmy little kids to great-grandmothers... and everyone in between.
- You’ve got the perfect balance of patience and efficiency.
- You’re insanely detail-oriented - Even Santa is jealous of your “making a list and checking it twice” skills.
- You LOVE to learn and master new skills quickly.
- You’re famous for doing what you say you’re going to do - no excuses
- You take pride and ownership in everything you do - whatever you do, you do it well.
- You see yourself as an integral part of your team’s success (because we will).

**About Us**

We value your time, so we’ll be back in touch with you very quickly.
