From OB/GYN and fertility to fibroid care and other specialized women’s health services, Viva Eve brings together multidisciplinary expertise to deliver coordinated, patient-centered care in a warm and welcoming environment. Our purpose is simple: to empower women to take control of their health and feel informed, supported, and confident throughout their healthcare journey.

Position Summary
The Clinical Medical Assistant Supervisor is a newly created role responsible for the day-to-day clinical supervision, training, and performance management of Viva Eve's Medical Assistant teams across all sites. As Viva Eve has grown to multiple locations and expanded clinical service lines, front-line clinical staff have lacked a single, dedicated point of clinical leadership — supervision has instead been absorbed into senior operations and executive roles. This position closes that gap, ensuring MAs and sonographers receive consistent onboarding, training, coaching, and escalation support, while freeing the Operations Director and practice managers to focus on broader site operations.
