High Lakes Health Care | Praxis Health

High Lakes Health Care, part of Praxis Health, is seeking a Family Nurse Practitioner to join our primary care clinic in Sisters, Oregon. This is an opportunity to build a meaningful outpatient family medicine practice in a close‑knit Central Oregon community, with the support of an experienced clinical team and the autonomy expected in independent primary care.

We are especially interested in a motivated new graduate or early‑career provider who is clinically curious, hard‑working, adaptable, and committed to developing confidence through real patient care, mentorship, and continued learning.

Primary care is meaningful work, but it is also demanding. Success in this role requires the ability to manage a full patient schedule, build strong clinical judgment over time, and learn how to use available support systems effectively while continually meeting the needs of the practice and community.

• 100% outpatient Family Medicine
• Opportunity to care for patients across the lifespan
• Relationship‑centered, community‑based care model
• Supportive clinic team with access to experienced providers
• Independent, physician‑led organization with local leadership presence
• Strong operational and administrative support
• New graduates encouraged to apply

High Lakes and Praxis Health provide support for new graduate APPs, while also recognizing that clinical confidence is built through consistent patient care, active learning, and professional accountability.

Support may include:

• Weekly structured participation in the APP fellowship/ThriveAP program
• Access to an experienced clinic Lead Provider for guidance and mentorship
• Collegial physician and APP consultation within High Lakes and neighboring Praxis clinics
• Practical support in developing clinical workflow, documentation habits, and patient management skills
• A team environment that encourages thoughtful questions, humility, and continued growth

The mentorship structure is intended to support development, not replace the work of building a full primary care practice. Candidates should be comfortable taking initiative, asking for help appropriately, and learning in real time while caring for patients.

We are seeking candidates who demonstrate both confidence and clinical readiness, while also embracing mentorship, continued learning, and growth within a team‑oriented environment.

We are looking for a provider who demonstrates:

• Clinical readiness and sound judgment
• Strong work ethic and accountability
• Comfort with the pace and responsibility of outpatient primary care
• Willingness to receive feedback and continue developing
• Ability to balance autonomy with collaboration
• Commitment to relationship‑centered patient care
• Interest in serving a smaller community with broad primary care needs
• Flexibility, self‑awareness, and the ability to adapt within a busy clinical environment

This position is structured around 36 patient‑facing hours per week, typically delivered over four clinic days. Administrative work is built into the overall workweek, but should not be understood as a day off or as protected time within the clinic schedule.

Providers should expect to carry a full primary care panel, participate in team‑based access, and develop the efficiency needed to meet patient volume expectations. We recognize that every provider works differently, and we support new clinicians in learning how to organize their practice, manage their time, and build sustainable habits within the realities of primary care.
