PRN Medical Assistant (MA)

Join Team UC4C – Careers at Urgent Care for Children

Are you looking for a meaningful career opportunity in the medical field? At Urgent Care for Children (UC4C) , we are always looking for passionate and dedicated professionals to join our team.

Our clinics are staffed with pediatric-trained medical providers and compassionate support staff who work together to deliver exceptional after-hours care for children. We are proud to provide a supportive, team-oriented environment where both patients and employees feel valued.

As a Medical Assistant (MA) in Daphne, Alabama , you will play a vital dual role in delivering both exceptional clinical support and seamless patient experience.

You will be a trusted partner to providers, patients, and families — supporting care from check-in through discharge.
