Expanding, comprehensive pain practice is seeking nurse practitioner/ physician's assistant to evaluate new and established patients. This is an opportunity to develop your own patient practice with intermittent but regular physician collaboration.
This is a predominately procedural and operative pain management clinic. Low dose medication options assist patients with their pain complaints.

You will be responsible for the efficient and accurate evaluation, interpretation, diagnosis, and treatment of painful conditions. You will have the opportunity to manage medications, recommend and coordinate ancillary care including physical therapy or specialty consultation, order of urine drug screens, radiographic and serologic studies, and determine suitability for operative and interventional pain therapies. The successful candidate will become comfortable safely prescribing controlled substances and monitoring compliance with the North Carolina Controlled Substances Database.

The candidate can be trained to independently perform procedures such as trigger point and joint injections. Our fellowship trained physicians will train/mentor the selected applicant.

Develop an independent medical practice in a rural and underserved region that has limited access to specialty medical care. You will be part of a like-minded organization whose mission is to expand patient access to specialty medical care by providing leading edge pain therapies to the patients and their families of western North Carolina. You will become a valued team member, enjoying the support and guidance of a specialty pain practice to develop your skills as a clinician.
