Surgical Assistant– Elevate Excellence in the OR | Austin, TX.

At MPOWERHealth , we’re not just a healthcare company—we’re trailblazers in musculoskeletal care. For over a decade, we've empowered independent physicians with cutting-edge clinical services, innovative technology, and seamless support solutions. Our mission? Simplify the complex, predict the unpredictable, and create better outcomes for both patients and providers.

 

Now, we’re searching for a skilled and passionate Surgical First Assist to join our team in Austin, TX. If you're a dedicated OR professional with a drive for surgical precision and patient care, we want to hear from you!

 

Why This Role?

As a Surgical First Assist, you’ll be a key player in surgical success, ensuring seamless procedures and top-tier patient outcomes. This role is 100% OR-based—no clinic, no rounding, just surgical excellence.

What You’ll Do:

Master Surgical Support:

  • Serve as a trusted first assist during spine, orthopedic and robotic surgeries.
  • Anticipate surgeon needs, maintain a sterile field, and optimize patient positioning.
  • Work seamlessly with the OR team to ensure precision, efficiency, and exceptional patient outcomes.


Own the Pre- and Post-Op Experience:

  • Connect with patients before surgery, ensuring they feel informed and at ease.
  • Confirm cases, manage essential documentation, and facilitate smooth patient transfers.
  • Provide detailed handovers to PACU staff to maintain continuity of care.


Grow, Innovate, and Lead:

  • Engage in clinical and operational improvement projects, including training and process enhancements.
  • Expand your expertise by learning new surgical specialties and staying ahead in the ever-evolving world of surgery.


What You’ll Bring to the OR:

Experience & Expertise:

  • At least 2 years of surgical assisting experience in spine, orthopedics, and robotics.
  • One of the following credentials: RNFA, PA-C, NP, or LSA.


Education & Training:

  • Graduate of an Accredited Master’s or Doctoral Degree Program: 
    • Physician Assistants – Master’s in PA Studies & NCCPA Certification.
    • Nurse Practitioners – Master’s/Doctoral in NP Studies + CNOR or RNFA.
  • Proficiency in EMR systems and MS Office—because efficiency matters in and out of the OR.
  • Current state license where practicing.


Physical Requirements:

  • Able to perform essential duties with or without accommodations, including:
    • Lifting, standing, squatting, bending, and kneeling during procedures.
    • Frequent lifting (20+ lbs.), constant seeing, hearing, and speaking in a fast-paced OR setting.


Preferred Skills & Mindset:

  • Strong interpersonal skills—because teamwork is key in the OR.
  • Customer service-oriented mindset—patients always come first.
  • Able to function independently, confidently, and adapt to dynamic environments.

 

Are You Ready to Make an Impact?

If you thrive in a high-energy OR environment, are passionate about surgical excellence, and want to be part of a team that’s shaping the future of musculoskeletal care, we want to hear from you!
