Surgical Physician Assistant (Plastic Surgery Center)

Maia Plastic Surgery — Tysons Corner (McLean), VA
Maia Plastic Surgery is opening a brand‐new surgical center inside our Tysons Corner office, and we’re hiring a Surgical Physician Assistant (PA-C) to be a cornerstone of our perioperative team. This role blends first-assist in the OR, pre‐/post‐operative care, and clinic support, with the unique opportunity to help stand up workflows and best practices for a modern, patient‐centered plastic surgery OBS. ***Experience in plastic surgery is required***

What you’ll do

Perioperative & OR (primary focus)

• First-assist for aesthetic and reconstructive procedures (e.g., rhinoplasty, facelift/neck lift, breast augmentation/reduction, abdominoplasty, liposuction, body contouring), under attending supervision.
• Perform sterile prep, draping, retraction, hemostasis, suturing/closure, and dressing application.
• Manage intraoperative documentation and instrument counts; support turnover efficiency.

Pre‐op

• Conduct comprehensive H&Ps, risk stratification, medication reconciliation, and informed‐consent education.
• Coordinate labs, imaging, clearances, and pre‐op orders; optimize patients per ERAS‐style protocols.

Post‐op & Recovery

• Monitor immediate recovery, pain control, PONV mitigation, and discharge readiness in accordance with ASC policies.
• Perform wound checks, drain care, suture/staple removal, and routine post‐op visits; escalate findings appropriately.

Clinic & Team Operations

• See consults and follow‐ups; deliver detailed education on procedures, recovery, and expectations.
• Write notes, orders, and e‐prescriptions in the EMR; maintain accurate, compliant documentation (HIPAA/OSHA).
• Partner with the surgeon and practice manager to refine ASC workflows (checklists, protocols, supply lists, QA/PI).

Qualifications

• NCCPA‐certified Physician Assistant (PA‐C) with current or eligible Virginia license.
• BLS and ACLS required (or obtained prior to start).
• 1–3+ years of surgical PA experience preferred (plastics, ENT, dermatologic surgery, or general surgery helpful).
• Demonstrated OR first‐assist proficiency and confident perioperative decision‐making.
• Prescriptive authority/DEA eligibility in Virginia (for post‐op pain, antibiotics, etc.).
• Comfort with EMR documentation and patient education; excellent communication and service mindset.
• Ability to stand for extended periods; thrives in a fast‐paced, detail‐driven ASC.

Nice to have

• Aesthetic practice exposure (e.g., scar management, lasers, skincare); injectable experience is a plus but not required.
• Experience helping launch or optimize an ambulatory surgery center.

Schedule & location

• Monday–Friday, clinic and OR days in our Tysons Corner (McLean), VA office.
• Occasional early starts/late finishes based on case schedule; limited call as needed for post‐op questions.

What we offer

• Competitive salary with bonus potential tied to ASC/clinic performance.
• Health, dental, vision, PTO, paid holidays, and CME allowance.
• Malpractice coverage; licensing/DEA support.
• A hands‐on role shaping the operations and patient experience of a new, high‐end surgical center.

Compensation: Competitive and commensurate with experience ($125,000–$165,000 base + bonus).
Start date: ASAP (flexible).
