About the Role

Upperline Health is seeking a Nurse Practitioner to provide clinic-based endocrinology care primarily in our {location}.

They provide medical diagnostics and treatments in clinics, patients' homes, or via telehealth, consistent with the APP’s scope of practice. Responsibilities include educating patients and families on medication usage, diabetes technology, lifestyle modification, diet and nutrition, and crisis anticipation and prevention. APPs also communicate medical information to patients' physicians, other providers, and Upperline’s interdisciplinary team.

Ideal candidates will have experience in Endocrinology and/or Primary Care/Internal Medicine with a strong focus on diabetes management, thyroid disease, osteoporosis, and metabolic health.
