Medical Assistant
We’re on a mission to end HIV/AIDS through integrated, personalized, judgment-free care. That means meeting people where they are and supporting the whole person—medically, socially, and emotionally. Every role here plays a part in that mission. We believe healthcare works best when it’s rooted in equity, dignity, and access for all. At Vivent Health, we’re building a culture where every person—both patients and employees—feels seen, respected, and empowered to thrive.
What truly sets us apart is how we work. You’ll be part of a deeply collaborative, interdisciplinary team united around one goal: better outcomes for the communities we serve. Our model brings together medical care, behavioral health, pharmacy, research, and prevention, creating a holistic approach that changes lives every day. This isn’t just a workplace—it’s a community, a mission, and your chance to turn work into purpose.
