Job Description

Description :

This position is remote based in the Houston area.

Do you wake up every morning inspired to solve problems and make a meaningful impact in health care? If so, we want to hear from you.

Innovista Medical Center is more than a clinic. It's a community hub. Many still feel unseen, unheard, and unsupported when seeing a health care provider. By putting our patients' needs first, we are transforming what it means to get exceptional care. We don't just treat symptoms. We focus on whole-person health—physical and mental well-being, disease prevention, and thoughtful management of chronic conditions.

Innovista Medical Center provides primary care and walk-in services for people of all ages in ten locations in Dallas and Houston. We provide comprehensive healthcare services, including in-office lab work, vaccines, imaging, and telemedicine.

Our values help define the patient experience and how we treat each other.

  • HEARD : Our care starts with listening well to build relationships and trust.
  • UNDERSTOOD : We offer an experience recognizing every patient's history and background.
  • IN CONTROL : We provide one place for all primary care needs for the whole family.
  • ACTIVELY SUPPORTED : We ensure patients are not alone in the care process, which is much more than what happens during a visit.
  • SEEN : We honor the entirety of who each patient is and care for them at the highest level.

If you are looking for a rewarding medical career, we look forward to hearing from you!

We're thrilled to announce a dynamic opportunity for you to become an integral part of our Houston, Texas team. As an onsite contributor, you'll play a key role in pioneering a pathway toward a more streamlined and effective healthcare system.
