Careers at City Prime Care

Many medical jobs in NYC put you inside a large system where patients rarely see the same face twice. City Prime Care is different in scale. We run two community primary care clinics, one in Elmhurst, Queens and one in Chinatown, Manhattan, and each is small enough that physicians, nurse practitioners, medical assistants and front desk staff work side by side every day.

Our work covers the full range of adult primary care: preventive visits, chronic disease management, acute sick visits, senior care and coordination with specialists. That variety keeps the day interesting, and the continuity means you see how your care plays out over months and years, not just one appointment.

Both clinics serve multilingual, working neighborhoods. Our teams speak English, Spanish and Chinese, and we value staff who can help patients feel understood in their own language. Clinic hours are Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM, with no overnight shifts. You can learn more about how we practice and what we stand for on our About Us page.

We do not keep a standing list of vacancies on this page, because openings at a two-clinic practice change often. Instead, below you will find the kinds of roles each clinic typically hires for. When a position is open, we post it and share details with applicants on request, including the schedule and requirements.

If you are interested in a role that is not open right now, we still encourage you to send your CV. We keep applications on file and reach out when a matching position becomes available at either clinic. Whether you are searching for medical assistant jobs in Queens or nurse practitioner jobs in NYC more broadly, the notes below explain what each location looks for.

Elmhurst, Queens – Clinical & Front Desk Roles

Our Elmhurst, Queens clinic at 41-02 75th St sits near the 74 St–Broadway and Jackson Heights–Roosevelt Av subway stations, which makes the commute straightforward from much of Queens. The clinic hires for physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, medical assistants and front desk or patient coordinator roles. Many of our Elmhurst patients speak Spanish, so Spanish-language skills are a real strength here, though not required for every position. For anyone exploring medical assistant jobs in Queens, this is a busy, community-focused setting where you will work closely with the providers.

Chinatown, Manhattan – Clinical & Front Desk Roles

Our Chinatown, Manhattan clinic at 75 Catherine St is a short walk from the East Broadway F station and Chatham Square. Like Elmhurst, it hires for physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, medical assistants and front desk or patient coordinators. A large share of patients here prefer to speak Chinese, so Mandarin or Cantonese skills are especially valued, and Spanish is helpful too. If you are looking at medical assistant jobs in Manhattan, the Chinatown team offers steady weekday hours and a close-knit clinic where patient relationships matter.

We want people to build a lasting career with us, and we know that compensation and benefits are a big part of choosing among medical jobs in NYC. Because our roles range from full-time clinicians to part-time front desk staff, benefits depend on the role and hours; details are discussed at interview so you get accurate information for the specific position.

Beyond the formal package, there are day-to-day advantages to working at a smaller practice. Our clinics keep a predictable weekday schedule, Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 6 PM, which many staff find easier to plan around than rotating hospital shifts. Providers have time to follow patients over the long term, and support staff are part of the care team rather than a separate department.

We also value learning on the job. Medical assistants and coordinators often gain experience across check-in, vitals, scheduling and referral coordination. Please ask about training, schedules and any role-specific benefits when we speak, and we will give you a straight answer.

Applying is simple. Send your CV or resume through our Contact page and tell us which role you are interested in and whether you prefer the Elmhurst or Chinatown clinic, or both. A short note about your experience, licensure or certification, and the languages you speak helps us match you to the right opening.

You are also welcome to call either clinic during business hours to ask whether a position is currently open: Elmhurst at (718) 555-0175 or Chinatown at (212) 555-0180. Our staff can tell you what is available and how to send your application.

What to include with your application:

• Your CV or resume with recent work history
• The role and clinic location you are applying for
• Any current license or certification relevant to the role
• Languages you speak with patients
