Schedule: Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM

Compensation: $120,000 – $170,000 annually

About the Opportunity / A Day in the Life

This is a focused outpatient neurology role centered on caring for patients with movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, tremor, dystonia, and related conditions. You’ll manage a consistent daily patient panel of approximately 12 patients, allowing for thoughtful, in-depth clinical care without the pressure of high-volume throughput.

Your day will include a mix of new patient evaluations and follow-up visits, with time built in to thoroughly assess symptoms, adjust treatment plans, and provide education to patients and families. You’ll work closely with a neurology team while maintaining a high level of autonomy in patient management.

This setting offers a steady, predictable workflow with a strong emphasis on continuity of care. You’ll have the opportunity to build long-term relationships with patients while contributing to meaningful improvements in quality of life for a complex and often underserved patient population.

Why This Role Stands Out
  • Structured patient volume with longer visit times—prioritizes quality over quantity
  • Specialized focus in movement disorders with meaningful clinical impact
  • Outpatient-only setting with a predictable weekday schedule
  • Strong continuity of care and opportunity to build lasting patient relationships
  • Collaborative neurology environment with provider autonomy
  • No travel requirements and stable, on-site workflow
What We’re Looking For
  • Board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) or Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner (ACNP)
  • Clinical confidence managing adult patients in an outpatient setting
  • Interest or experience in neurology or movement disorders
  • Strong communication skills and patient-centered approach
  • Ability to work independently within a collaborative team
Job Duties & Responsibilities
  • Conduct comprehensive neurologic evaluations for new and established patients
  • Diagnose and manage movement disorders including Parkinson’s disease and tremor
  • Develop and adjust individualized treatment plans
  • Manage medications, including titration and monitoring for side effects
  • Provide patient and caregiver education on disease progression and management
  • Coordinate care with neurologists and interdisciplinary team members
  • Document patient encounters accurately and efficiently
  • Monitor patient outcomes and adjust care plans as needed
  • Participate in clinic workflow optimization and care coordination
  • Ensure adherence to clinical protocols and quality standards
Required Qualifications
  • Licensed Nurse Practitioner (FNP or ACNP) in Arizona (or ability to obtain)
  • Board certification as an FNP or ACNP
  • DEA license (or ability to obtain)
  • Experience in neurology, primary care, or a related clinical setting
Preferred Background

  • Enjoy building long-term relationships with patients
  • Prefer a structured, predictable outpatient schedule
  • Value spending more time per patient for thorough care

  • Thrive in a collaborative but autonomous clinical environment
This Role May Not Be a Fit If You…
  • Prefer high-acuity inpatient or hospital-based care
  • Want a fast-paced, high-volume clinical setting
  • Are seeking procedural-heavy responsibilities
  • Prefer variable scheduling or shift-based work
  • Are not interested in chronic disease management or follow-up care
