VP Area U of U Health - Academics Department 00917 - Vascular Surgery Development Location Campus City Salt Lake City, UT Type of Recruitment External Posting Pay Rate Range 105,975 - 173,971 Close Date 09/19/2026 Priority Review Date (Note - Posting may close at any time) Job Summary
The Division of Vascular Surgery is seeking a patient-focused, self-motivated Advanced Practice Clinician (NP/PA) to join our growing vein-care program. This full-time position is primarily outpatient and involves providing comprehensive care for patients with venous disease, including new patient evaluations, return visits, procedural consents, longitudinal follow-up, and optional participation in vein procedures. The ideal candidate works effectively in a collaborative team environment, communicates clearly, and demonstrates a commitment to high-quality, evidence-based care.
As part of a world-class institution with excellent benefits, our APCs have ongoing educational opportunities-including weekly vascular-focused conferences-and access to research, quality improvement, and project involvement.
The Vascular Surgery group includes 7 faculty surgeons, 2 fellows, and 9 APCs. This APC role will be integrated into our outpatient vein program rather than the 24/7 inpatient coverage team. Candidates with interest in procedural participation (such as assisting with endovenous ablations, sclerotherapy, or other office-based vein interventions) will have opportunities for progressive skill development.
In addition to direct patient care, intermittent teaching interaction with residents, medical students, and APC students may be expected, along with participation in team meetings, conferences, and special projects.
