Practice Medicine the Way You Always Wanted To

At American Family Care (AFC), we're rewriting what it means to be an Advanced Practice Provider. Our hybrid Urgent Care + Primary Care model gives you the clinical variety that keeps medicine interesting — the fast pace and procedural mix of urgent care, balanced with the continuity and relationships of primary care. No insurance-authorization nightmares. No productivity treadmill that squeezes out the reason you got into medicine. Exceptional patient care, a team that has your back, and a schedule that lets you have a life.

If you're a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant who wants to practice at the top of your license, grow your clinical skills, and actually enjoy going to work again — we'd love to meet you.

Time That's Actually Yours

Generous paid time off — vacation, sick, and holiday
Flexible scheduling with predictable shifts (no overnights, no on-call)
Clinic closes — you go home. Full stop.
Full-time and part-time tracks available
Work-life balance we can actually point to, not just advertise

Clear pathways to lead provider, medical director, and regional clinical leadership roles
Small-business feel with the stability of a national brand
A team culture where your input shapes how we deliver care

What You'll Do

As a hybrid APP, you'll care for patients across the full spectrum of outpatient medicine — treating acute illness and injury one hour, managing a diabetic's A1C the next, and building long-term patient relationships along the way. You'll work collaboratively with physicians, fellow APPs, nurses, medical assistants, and radiology/lab staff to deliver efficient, high-quality care that keeps patients coming back (and referring their friends and family).

Day-to-day, you will:

Perform focused and comprehensive health histories, exams, and assessments for both walk-in urgent care patients and established primary care panels
Order and interpret labs, imaging (onsite X-ray), EKGs, and point-of-care diagnostics; develop differential diagnoses and treatment plans
Manage a broad range of acute presentations — lacerations, sprains and fractures, respiratory and GI illness, minor procedures, workers' comp injuries, and occupational health visits
Provide continuity primary care: annual wellness exams, chronic disease management (hypertension, diabetes, asthma, hyperlipidemia), preventive screenings, and vaccinations
Recognize and stabilize emergencies including cardiac events, shock, hemorrhage, seizures, anaphylaxis, and acute respiratory distress; coordinate transfers as needed
Counsel patients and families on diagnoses, treatment plans, medication adherence, and lifestyle modifications in a way that actually makes sense to them
Document clearly and accurately in the EMR (we're committed to charting systems that work with you, not against you)
Collaborate with your supervising physician and care team to continuously improve patient outcomes and clinic flow

What We're Looking For

Active, unrestricted Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant licensure in the state of practice
Board certification through ANCC, AANP, or NCCPA
Active DEA registration and state-controlled substance certificate (or willingness to obtain prior to start)
BLS required; ACLS and PALS preferred (we'll help you get them if you don't have them)
1+ year of urgent care, emergency medicine, family medicine, or internal medicine experience preferred — new graduates with strong clinical rotations and the right attitude are encouraged to apply
Comfortable with minor procedures: laceration repair, I&D, splinting, joint injections, foreign body removal
Excellent clinical judgment and the ability to work independently while knowing when to pick up the phone
Warm, professional bedside manner with patients of all ages (we see everyone from 6 months to 96 years)
A team player who takes pride in a clean clinic, a supported staff, and a satisfied patient
