From Med-Surg Telemetry to Doctor's Office - how to change?

[Evangeline2000]

Hi,

I work Med-Surg Telemetry. I am wondering about switching to working in a doctor's office - I really think I would like it - predictable hours, etc.

Has anyone gone from hospital nursing to working in a physician's office?

How should I look for a job? I'm thinking about just sending out my resume with a brief cover letter to see if there is interest.

I really enjoy talking with people and interacting with them more than the actual technical bedside care, which is why I'm thinking about checking out office nursing.

Anyone with tips or stories, I'd appreciate hearing it.
