About the Clinic: we have been in Woden since 2013 and have 6 osteopaths and 2 part time receptionists. The patient cohort ranges from a few days old, through primary and secondary age children to our senior citizens. Reception staff are the first point of contact and are responsible for greeting the patients and making them feel welcome, be that on the phone or as they walk through the door. Getting to know the patients, which osteopath they see and the time of day they need is an important part of the job. The admin side of the job requires accuracy, accountability and team work. Canberra Osteopathic Centre is a supportive place to work.
