Part-Time → Full-Time OpportunityPerspective Health | Integrative & Functional Medicine

About Us

Perspective Health is a growing integrative health clinic combining primary care, functional medicine, hormone optimization (HRT), and medical weight loss, along with advanced therapies such as HOCATT.

We are committed to delivering comprehensive, root-cause, and relationship-based care that bridges conventional and integrative medicine.

Position Overview

We are seeking a Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to provide primary care services within our integrative clinic model.

This position will start part-time with a clear pathway to full-time as patient demand grows. The ideal candidate values both evidence-based medicine and a more holistic, patient-centered approach.

You will play a key role in managing acute concerns, chronic disease, and preventive care, while collaborating closely with our team on HRT, functional medicine, and metabolic health.

Key Responsibilities

Primary Care

  • Provide comprehensive primary care services across the lifespan (adult-focused optional)
  • Conduct acute care visits (URI, UTI, minor injuries, infections, etc.)
  • Manage chronic conditions, including:
    • Hypertension
    • Diabetes / insulin resistance
    • Hyperlipidemia
    • Thyroid disorders
    • Obesity
  • Perform annual exams and preventive care visits
  • Order and interpret labs, imaging, and diagnostics
  • Prescribe medications and manage ongoing treatment plans

Integrative Collaboration

  • Collaborate with team on:
    • Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
    • Functional medicine cases
    • Weight loss and metabolic optimization
  • Incorporate lifestyle, nutrition, and root-cause approaches into care plans
  • Support patients in long-term health optimization, not just disease management

Patient Experience & Care Coordination

  • Build strong, ongoing relationships with patients
  • Educate patients on conditions, treatment options, and prevention
  • Maintain accurate, timely EMR documentation
  • Collaborate with clinical and administrative staff to ensure high-quality care

Ideal Candidate

  • Licensed NP or PA with active, unrestricted license
  • Strong foundation in primary care and chronic disease management
  • Comfortable managing acute visits independently
  • Interest in integrative, functional, and hormone-based care
  • Excellent communication and patient rapport skills
  • Growth-minded and adaptable in a fast-evolving practice

Preferred Experience (Not Required)

  • Experience in:
    • Integrative or functional medicine
    • Hormone therapy (HRT)
    • Weight loss management
  • Telehealth experience (if applicable)
  • Comfort interpreting more advanced or specialty lab panels

Schedule & Compensation

  • Part-time to start, with transition to full-time
  • Flexible scheduling options
  • Compensation based on experience (hourly or salary structure possible)

Why Join Perspective Health?

  • Practice true integrative primary care
  • Opportunity to expand into HRT and functional medicine
  • Collaborative, supportive team environment
  • Growing patient demand and ability to scale your role
  • Focus on quality care vs. high-volume medicine

If you're looking to practice primary care in a more meaningful, patient-centered way while expanding your skillset into integrative and functional medicine, we'd love to connect.
