Job Description

Last Update: 11/23/19
We are looking for a full time Family Physician for our expanding primary care network. Because of the growth in primary care needs, we see the need to utilize Family Nurse Practitioners to keep up with the population needs. The challenge is finding seasoned NP's. At the same time there are many eager new graduates who would love an opportunity to form a better base with a training program and strong mentorship. We are looking to develop a training program that will include working with medical students and new NP graduates for two years to help them develop their skills and formulate more confidence in family medicine.

We have growing rural practices in Greene & Columbia County NY. The positions are currently for an outpatient environment only. The applicant would be part of a large group practice but in a small satellite office within a large hospital owned multi-specialty group. You will enjoy an excellent collegial environment with seasoned well respected Nurse Practitioners and/or experienced Physicians working side by side. We have offices with opportunity to take time off from the office while teaching and coordinating the program. Our aim is to help you shape this concept to your practice style. You would be part of an active Ambulatory department that meets regularly to collaborate and shape the direction of our quality goals. There is outstanding specialty support and with our new Albany Medical Center Affiliation, every specialty is at your service. But what makes this such a great fit is the ability to work as an educator and shape the skills of enthusiastic learners. The opportunity to create a unique professional experience is right here waiting for you to reach out.

Patient Per Day: Variable, but we would like to see a range of 80-90 per week. Depending upon the hours worked each day the volume would change. It also varies with the volume of new patients which often take longer. Obviously, we would expect less as you would be spending time precepting.
