What our ideal new team member looks like:

You’re someone who thrives in a team-based, outpatient clinical setting and finds real fulfillment in helping patients regain function and relief from pain. You're comfortable seeing a full panel of patients and are either experienced or eager to be trained in working up cases for interventional procedures like epidurals, medial branch blocks, steroid injections, spinal cord stimulation, kyphoplasty, and the Minuteman procedure. You're compassionate, proactive, and focused on providing patient-centered care with a strong attention to detail. You understand the importance of medication management and feel confident navigating treatment plans within strict clinical policies and guidelines.

Job Summary:

The provider will also be involved in preparing patients for procedures such as epidurals, medial branch blocks, spinal cord stimulation trials, kyphoplasty, and other advanced treatments. While medication management is part of the role, the clinic operates under clearly defined policies and evidence-based prescribing protocols to ensure safe, responsible care.
