Patient Experience & Operations Coordinator

We're a staffing agency hiring for a cash-pay sports medicine and athlete recovery clinic in Dallas, Texas. We provide personalized chiropractic care, rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, stretch therapy, massage, and other recovery services.

Our approach is relationship-driven. We believe in delivering an exceptional athlete experience through empathy, accountability, clear communication, and personalized care.

We are looking for a highly organized, proactive, and commercially minded Patient Experience & Operations Coordinator who can manage multiple priorities simultaneously, support patient retention and booking conversion, and help keep our daily operations running smoothly.

The ideal candidate combines the coordination and problem-solving abilities of an experienced travel consultant, the patient-service skills of a healthcare administrator, the commercial mindset of a sales professional, and the digital confidence of an experienced remote worker.

The Patient Experience & Operations Coordinator is responsible for front-desk support, patient communication, appointment coordination, enquiry follow-up, administrative accuracy and selected social media and digital operations.

This is a hands-on, execution-focused position for someone who enjoys managing multiple moving parts, anticipating what needs attention, solving problems and ensuring that tasks are completed without constant supervision.

The successful candidate will be comfortable working across several digital platforms, communicating professionally with US-based patients and colleagues, and balancing patient service with commercial outcomes such as bookings, retention and reactivation.
