Medical Assistant Gap Year Program (Waukegan, IL)

Graduated students (winter and spring graduates) interested in pursuing a career in a medical/healthcare related field are encouraged to consider this opportunity. Specifically, this is an excellent experience for students planning a career as a physician, physician assistant, or physical therapist who plan a “gap year” before matriculation to professional school.

Interns will gain comprehensive education and experience in all aspects of clinical operations and workflow, not limited to patient education, rooming patients, taking histories & physicals, learning billing procedures, and various other administrative responsibilities. Opportunities will also be provided to shadow surgical procedures and receive mentoring by the Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine clinical team. This is a full-time, one or two-year, paid position. Some part-time applicants with potential for transition to full-time may be accepted on a case-by-case basis.
