Seeking Part Time Dental Hygienist
We are a growing private office in the downtown Beaverton area in search of a hygienist that is looking for a practice to call home. We are also committed to nurturing a comfortable, positive, hardworking environment while still having fun doing what we love. We believe that each team member is a specialist at their role and we all simply have different roles with no hierarchy. We are always open to reasonable feedback that will improve our team and patient experience.
We are looking for a hygienist to offer more appointment options for our growing pool of great patients. Our practice is focused on nurturing long term relationships with our patients through education and improvement. We believe that each patient is unique and viewed as holistically as possible. We believe in educating our patients to make well informed decisions to achieve optimal dental health and do not let production dictate our treatment plans.
We are currently open Tuesdays 7-6pm, Wednesdays 9-3pm, and Thursdays 7-5pm with plans to open Mondays and expand our Wednesdays in the future. We are open to discussing modifying work days and hours for the short term on a case by case basis. We ask that hygienists must have a local anesthetic endorsement on record with the OR Dental Board.
We are inviting dental hygienists to send their resumes to us along with a message of what made you want to apply and desired work schedule.
