We are looking for one full-time senior lab technician who is interested in pediatric primary care. We pride ourselves on being a fantastic place to work, with a family-like atmosphere among staff. We hope that whoever joins our team will be with us for the long haul, as many of employees have chosen. Below is a little about our practice.

Our practice has been around for more than 90 years. We emphasize the importance of individualized, personalized care and we are committed to provide the best possible care for children, adolescents, and young adults. We aim for continuity, always trying to have each patient see their “own” doctor and nurse at each visit. By always seeing the same doctor and nurse, the children and their parents become quite comfortable and form long-term relationships with their care providers. We love getting to know our patients and their families.
We are proud to have an in-office laboratory so that we may expedite and individualize treatment plans. We are committed to facilitating excellent communication between our patients and their pediatrician and nurse. One of our physicians is available 24/7 and we are open 365 days/year.
