Physician Assistant

Bay Area Hyperbarics is a specialty clinic providing hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to patients with wound healing, radiation injury, sudden hearing loss and other medically indicated conditions. We're looking for a Physician's Assistant to serve as our onsite advanced practice clinician, providing medical oversight and clinical documentation across the full patient treatment journey. This is also an exciting time to join us — we're expanding into regenerative medicine and wellness services, and we welcome a PA who's curious about that broader scope of care as we grow.
