Certified Medical Assistant -

Job Description

Who we are

At Herself Health, we’re on a mission to improve health and wellness for women 65 and up. We are building a new model of primary care to solve long standing problems - rushed appointments, long wait times, and care that’s generalized rather than specialized towards women’s issues later in life such as bone loss, weight fluctuation, and changes in mental, social and emotional well-being.

We have built out a best-in-class early team who is driving the launch of our first clinics in Minneapolis-Saint Paul, MN. We are looking for talented and motivated individuals to join us.
