Position Responsibilities

The OBGYN Generalist Division has an outstanding opportunity at the level of Teaching Associate for a full scope outpatient OBGYN Advanced Practice Provider.

An ARNP/PA-C is a certified physician assistant or advanced registered nurse practitioner who provides evaluation and medical management to OBGYN patients. The successful candidate would have experience providing comprehensive prenatal and postpartum care, including first trimester ultrasound, and outpatient gynecologic health care including preventative health maintenance visits, office visits for common gynecologic conditions, and contraception. Clinical teaching experience and experience collaborating with the clinical team is valued. This teaching associate would work with our generalist faculty to provide full-scope ARNP/PA clinical services for obstetrics & gynecologic clinics.
