About the Swan Center for Plastic Surgery

Swan has been known for making Atlanta more beautiful for over 30 years. Our Board certified Atlanta plastic surgeons, Dr. Bauer, Dr. Fardo, and Dr. Catignani, have extensive training and aesthetic sensibility. They help their Atlanta cosmetic surgery patients achieve a natural, yet enhanced appearance. Since safety is as important as results, our operating facility is fully accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO). Swan has a strong team who enjoy working together collaboratively and a true emphasis is placed on the patient experience, results, and safety. Swan has partnered with United Aesthetics Alliance (UAA), a growing private equity-backed plastic surgery and med spa platform with practices across the country. 

At United Aesthetics Alliance (UAA), we are dedicated to empowering our medical professionals and staff at leading plastic surgery practices and med spas nationwide. We believe that when people feel confident in their own skin, they’re free to live with purpose. As a growing medical aesthetics company, we are building a best-in-class portfolio through exceptional partnerships, innovative services, and a culture rooted in excellence. UAA is a rapidly growing company acquiring plastic surgery and med spa practices across the country. Backed by private equity firm, Varsity Healthcare Partners, UAA is poised for successful positioning in the aesthetics market.
We are seeking a dedicated and skilled Accountant on a full-time basis. The Accountant is responsible for the day-to-day financial accounting of the practice, with particular emphasis on provider and staff compensation — including commission calculations, bonus administration, and periodic true-ups. This role ensures the accuracy, timeliness, and integrity of financial records across a multi-revenue-stream environment (surgical services, injectables, laser and energy-based treatments, skincare retail, and membership/package programs), and partners closely with practice leadership, providers, and payroll/HR to ensure compensation is calculated correctly and paid on time.

 
We offer competitive compensation based on experience, along with a comprehensive benefits package that includes health, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO, and exclusive injectable, spa, and surgical benefits.

Compliance & Internal Controls

•      Maintain internal controls over cash handling, revenue recognition, and compensation calculations.

•      High degree of accuracy and attention to detail, particularly under recurring pay-cycle deadlines.

•      Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to reconcile discrepancies between production data and compensation output.

•      Excellent discretion and judgment when handling confidential compensation and financial information.

•      Clear written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to explain compensation calculations to providers and staff.
