The ideal candidate is clinically strong, detail-oriented, and thrives in a collaborative environment.

Key Responsibilities

Operating Room (Primary Focus):

  • Provide first-assist support to the orthopedic surgeon during surgical procedures.

  • Prepare and maintain the sterile field; anticipate surgeon needs throughout procedures.

  • Assist with patient positioning, draping, retraction, suctioning, hemostasis, wound closure, and dressing application.

  • Ensure proper handling and accountability of surgical instruments, implants, and supplies.

  • Adhere strictly to sterile technique, safety protocols, and infection control standards.

  • Participate in surgical time-outs and patient verification processes.

Pre- and Post-Operative Care:

  • Review patient charts, imaging, and surgical plans prior to procedures.

  • Assist with pre-op patient preparation and post-op recovery instructions as directed.

  • Monitor patients for immediate post-operative concerns and communicate findings to the surgeon and care team.

  • Document surgical assistance accurately and timely in the electronic medical record (EMR).

Clinic Support (As Needed):

  • Assist the surgeon during in-office procedures and injections.

  • Support patient flow by rooming patients, obtaining histories, and assisting with exams as directed.

  • Provide patient education related to surgical procedures, post-op care, and recovery expectations.

Team & Practice Support:

  • Work closely with OR staff, anesthesia, nursing, and clinic teams to ensure seamless care.

  • Maintain a professional, patient-centered demeanor at all times.

  • Participate in quality improvement, safety initiatives, and continuing education as required.

Qualifications

Required:

  • Current and valid Licensed Surgical Assistant credential (state and/or national, as applicable).

  • Minimum 2 years of orthopedic surgical assisting experience preferred.

  • Strong knowledge of orthopedic procedures, instrumentation, and implants.

  • BLS certification (ACLS a plus).

  • Proficiency with EMR systems and basic computer skills.

  • Excellent communication, organization, and teamwork skills.

Preferred:

  • Experience assisting a single surgeon in a high-volume orthopedic practice.

  • Familiarity with outpatient surgery centers and hospital OR environments.

  • Ability to flex between OR and clinic responsibilities as needed.

Physical & Work Requirements

  • Ability to stand for prolonged periods and assist during lengthy surgical procedures.

  • Manual dexterity to handle surgical instruments and equipment.

  • Ability to lift and position patients with appropriate assistance.

  • Schedule may include early mornings and variable hours based on surgical schedule.

What We Offer

  • Competitive compensation based on experience.

  • Comprehensive benefits package (medical, dental, vision, PTO, retirement plan, etc.).

  • Stable schedule working primarily with one physician.

  • Supportive, team-oriented environment in a respected orthopedic practice.

Fondren Orthopedics is committed to providing exceptional orthopedic care while fostering a professional and respectful workplace. We welcome dedicated surgical assistants who take pride in their work and in delivering outstanding patient care.
