About this job

If you love patient-centered health care with real relationships, then Paladina Health is the place for you.

Paladina Health is transforming the way primary care is delivered. We operate primary care clinics that deliver better care for our patients, thereby reducing the cost of care. Our care teams are health advocates for our patients, driving highly differentiated clinical outcomes. Our clinical excellence group is working to be the most innovative; evidence based clinical care organization in the world.

What makes us different?

-Patient first orientation in all aspects of the clinic with a focus on prevention, wellness, and comprehensive primary care
-Smaller patient panels
-Longer patient appointments giving extra time for the care team to spend with patients
-Insurance-free business model allows for less time dealing with billing and more time caring for patients
-Small office atmosphere with 2-3 total providers at the clinic
-Extensive use of technology and Electronic Medical Records (EMR)

The Medical Assistant works with a concierge physician to provide healthcare services for corporate clients to ensure excellent care and experience for our patients.

Although Paladina Health is a subsidiary of DaVita, it operates as an independent startup, with sufficient autonomy to grow rapidly and to make decisions that are right for the business. Because it operates as a startup, teammates must be able to excel in unstructured environments and they must be willing to adapt to change quickly. Every day brings new challenges and obstacles that require innovative and unique solutions. Paladina Health teammates must be enthusiastic about achieving the end goal and they must be willing to help the team succeed as a whole.
