Bariatric Office Manager Needed

I do not live in Louisiana but I am nearby in Alabama and my heart goes out to each and every individual in the state who has been affected by the hurricane. I have contributed funds and participated in relief efforts through my church. I am currently working on a temporary assignment in Paramus, New Jersey assisting a bariatric surgeon in starting a wonderful new practice. It occured to the physician and to me that even though this might not seem like a helpful thing for those affected by the hurricane - it ultimately could be. We have a wonderful job opening for the office manager of the practice. Knowing that thousands of people will be displaced by this tragedy we felt that posting this job here on OH might ultimately be helpful to someone who was considering relocating. If you would like more information about this job opening please email me. A job description is below.
