Full Job Description
Position Summary

We're hiring Family Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants to serve as the primary clinician to provide support, treatment and management to patients. This is a full-scope, hands-on primary care role: you'll manage chronic disease, perform in-office procedures, and build long-term relationships with patients rather than cycling through high-volume, short visits.

Key Responsibilities

  • Provide longitudinal primary care across chronic disease management, preventive care, and acute visits to members.
  • Perform in-office procedures including I&Ds, suturing and suture removal, skin biopsies, and men's and women's health exams
  • Conduct visits in person, by phone, and by secure text/video, with typical visit lengths of 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on patient need
  • Diagnose and manage chronic conditions (e.g., diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia) with the panel size and visit time needed to intervene before conditions progress
  • Coordinate daily patient care and task delegation with an assigned Medical Assistant
  • Document all visits and maintain patient records in the EHR.
  • Maintain 24/7/365 on-call access for patient communication via a company-provided secure line (Twilio-based; personal phone number is never shared with patients)
  • Work under a collaborating/delegating physician in accordance with Texas Medical Board supervision requirements
  • Participate in weekly team meetings and 1:1s and other clinical meetings as requested or required.


Requirements

  • Active, unencumbered Texas licensure as a PA (NCCPA-certified) OR APRN-FNP (national board certified)
  • Minimum 2 years of post-graduate experience as a Family Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant in family practice or primary care
  • Demonstrated experience managing patients across the lifespan (pediatric through geriatric)
  • Hands-on experience performing I&Ds, suturing/suture removal, skin biopsies, IV placement, and men's/women's health exams
  • Active, unrestricted DEA registration, or ability to obtain prior to start
  • Current BLS certification, or ability to obtain within 30 days of employment
  • Proficiency with electronic medical records and scheduling software

Preferred Qualifications

  • Prior experience in direct primary care, concierge medicine, or an employer-sponsored clinic model
  • Bilingual (English/Spanish)
  • Experience owning or managing a patient panel with full clinical autonomy
  • Multistate licensure or telehealth experience
  • Comfort with a lower-volume, higher-touch practice model versus high-throughput fee-for-service


BENEFITS

Taking Care of You Now and Your Future

  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Frontier Membership for you and your immediate family
  • Voluntary insurance: short-term disability, long-term disability, life insurance, and other supplemental insurances.
  • 401(k) plan

Generous Time Off

  • Flexible Paid Time Off (PTO) policy, with team members taking an average of 20 days per year. Within this benefit, we include up to 5 unplanned days off per year
  • 9 company holidays per year
  • Parental leave policies

Investing in Your Growth

  • $1500 per year towards your professional development
