Please be aware that no job offers will be made from ModMed without a formal interview process, and valid communications from our hiring team will come from our employees with a ModMed email address (first.lastname@modmed.com). Please check senders’ email addresses carefully. Additionally, ModMed will not ask you to purchase equipment or supplies as part of your onboarding process. If you are receiving communications as described above, please report them to the FTC website (https://consumer.ftc.gov/articles/how-recognize-and-avoid-phishing-scams) .
