Help make the world
a better place

We have one of the largest internship departments in Houston. We appreciate our interns who are committed to our vision of bringing compassionate, warm, and exceptional care to our patients within our community.

Our Internship Opportunities

We have a wide range of volunteer opportunities, including:

  • High School students needing hours for HOSA
  • Medical Assistant students
  • Nurse Practitioner students

Our Internship Opportunities

The minimum internship time commitment is two 10-hour shifts per week; however, certain programs have more specific commitment requirements. Being consistent matters more than how many hours you intern. Because we must coordinate many intern’s schedules, we must be able to depend on your attendance. Also, please understand that interns service does not lead to paid employment at Optimal Family Care. We happily provide a letter of recommendation for interns who have given at least 150 hours of satisfactory service.
If you are interested in our internship program, please see the instructions below to download and return an application form and questionnaire or call us at 1-832-783-8027 to receive forms by mail. All interns must have medical clearance, provide personal references, undergo an interview, background check, orientation, and any necessary specialized training.

Apply to Become an Intern

All interns including adults and high school students are required to complete the Medical Clearance Forms. These forms will be provided after receipt of your internship application.
Accepted formats for submission include PDF and Microsoft Word Documents (as attachments). If you mail your application, it should be printed single-sided.
Please complete and return by email to:

Had the best visit today at Optimal Family Care. Entire staff was very welcoming and kind. Nice comfortable atmosphere. I saw Vanessa and she was extremely thorough. Took time to go over details and explains and answers any questions. You won’t feel rushed at all like so many Dr Offices. I would highly recommend this practice for your medical needs. I’m so pleased with the overall visit and staff.

My visit was just as fabulous as I had hoped it would be. Dr. Conn sat and talked to me for more than 30 minutes about what I wanted and what concerns I had. She was open to different treatments and was really focused on my needs.

Everytime I come to this clinic the staff is so friendly, the aesthetics are serene, and Vanessa actually sits down to really listen to me, and thoroughly asked about my medical history so she could carefully come up with a treatment plan for me. She always addresses all my concerns and needs! This was exactly what I was looking for to be my PCP! Very affordable too!

Very affordable I.V. infusions. Both me and my husband are “hard stick”, meaning it’s not easy to get the IV needle in, but it was painless and she did it effortlessly. Highly recommended. Will come back.
