Medical Assistant
- DoW Skill Bridge Program

We're seeking motivated service members interested in participating in the DOW Skill Bridge program who are ready to bring their sense of purpose, discipline, and commitment to helping others in a civilian healthcare setting. Our Medical Assistants play a central role in patient care, so we're looking for individuals who combine professionalism, compassion, and a strong work ethic.

This Skill Bridge opportunity is designed to help medically trained service members (Corpsman/Medics) bridge their military experience into a dermatology setting. Through structured clinical and operational training, participants will build the skills needed to thrive in a modern civilian medical practice.

For those who enjoy supporting patients, working in dynamic environments, learning new skills, and continuing to serve others by increasing access to care, this program offers a purposeful next step in your career journey.

Deliver an exceptional patient experience—from greeting patients and preparing them for their visit to answering care-related questions with confidence and empathy.

Support providers during hand-on patient care, assist with procedures, document detailed visit notes, process prescription orders, and help ensure each appointment runs smoothly.

Keep clinic operations running efficiently by managing supplies, maintaining equipment, understanding room flow, and finding smart ways to improve daily processes.

Contribute to a positive, team-oriented environment by stepping in where needed, staying organized, and supporting your colleagues.

And you'll gain valuable real-world clinical experience that prepares you for a successful transition into civilian healthcare roles.
