Nurse Practitioner (Neurology – Memory Care)
Overview & Highlights
Location: Ahwatukee, AZ
Schedule: Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM
Compensation: $120,000 – $170,000 annually
Benefits: Full benefits package (medical, dental, vision, PTO, and more)
Work Environment: Outpatient neurology clinic focused on adult patients with movement disorders and memory-related conditions
About the Opportunity / A Day in the Life
This is a dedicated outpatient neurology role centered on memory care and movement disorders, where you’ll work closely with adult patients experiencing conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and other cognitive or neurologic impairments. Your day will be structured, predictable, and focused on meaningful patient interactions rather than high-volume turnover.
You’ll evaluate patients, manage ongoing treatment plans, and provide continuity of care in a setting that allows for deeper clinical relationships. This role offers a balance of autonomy and collaboration, working alongside neurologists and a supportive clinical team while maintaining ownership of your patient panel.
Expect a steady clinic flow with a focus on thoughtful assessments, medication management, and patient/family education. This is an ideal environment for providers who enjoy cognitive neurology, longitudinal care, and making a tangible difference in patients’ quality of life.

Focus on memory care and movement disorders in a specialized outpatient setting
Predictable weekday schedule with no nights or weekends
Opportunity to build long-term patient relationships and continuity of care
Collaborative environment with neurology specialists
Meaningful work with a growing and underserved patient population
Balanced pace that supports quality care over volume

Strong interest in neurology, memory care, or cognitive disorders
Ability to work both independently and collaboratively
Patient-centered approach with strong communication skills
Comfort managing chronic neurologic conditions

Board certification as an NP
Experience in neurology, geriatrics, internal medicine, or a related field
DEA license (or ability to obtain)
Preferred Background
Prior experience in neurology or memory care

Prefer minimal patient follow-up or longitudinal care
Thrive in high-volume, rapid turnover clinic environments
