Considerate, thoughtful, meticulous and have phone skills (Ogden)
This posting is for the Front Desk position in a long established yet small dental office with a loyal patient base.

The dentist who started the office is retiring, as is the Front Desk / Office Manager.

We can train you! Dental experience is welcome (DA's, FD's,...) but is not required.

What cannot be taught is a candidate's work ethic, attention to detail, respect for others... those elusive "personality traits"

Position duties include:
-caring about people
-and their tooth health
-and gum health
-calling patients to remind them of their check-up appointments
-answering the phone (Ms. Jones needs to re-schedule, what times are available? Mr. Smith is calling to cancel last minute, can you gently persuade him to keep his appointment instead?)
-explaining patients' insurance benefits, and their treatment options
-dealing with Premium Collecting Companies
-dealing with the same PCC's over and over again to the point of really not enjoying that part so much
-respectfully collecting money from patients, at the front and over the phone
-sending monthly statements to patients
-post charges and payments to patient accounts
-learning the office's practice management software system (if you know Excel you will be able to learn this)
-a whole bunch of other responsibilities that I cannot currently describe for you because I have never run a business or "led a team" before now.

The interview process will consist of at least two interviews, and then a working interview.

This job will require you to be bonded, meaning you basically can't have any criminal convictions outside of traffic violations
We will have to do a background check prior to starting
Because we are a dental practice, we cannot hire someone who smokes. (Or who quit for the fifth time seven weeks ago).
Because of the patient demographics, we need someone who can maintain a "professional" appearance at work
We will verify your references

If you'd like to learn more, please send me an email, tell me what interests you about this position. Reference the color 'mauve' in your subject line if you've read this far.

Lastly, I am new to Ogden, and don't know a lot of people here, my reason for saying so is to assure you that if you currently work in another dental office, I will promise to keep your inquiry confidential.

Location: Ogden
Compensation: Salary starts at $1,500/month +, DOE. Approx. 32 hrs / wk, M-Th, 8:00 - 5:00

Integrity, curiosity, thoughtfulness, compassion.
