Job description

Join San Diego's #1 Vein Clinic

La Jolla Vein & Vascular is expanding and seeking a motivated Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant who is passionate about delivering exceptional, patient-centered care. This is an outstanding opportunity to join one of Southern California's premier outpatient vein centers and become part of a highly collaborative specialized team.

Unlike many specialties, venous disease management offers the opportunity to build meaningful, long-term relationships with patients. Our providers guide patients from their initial consultation through diagnosis, treatment planning, and ongoing follow-up, helping them achieve lasting improvements in vascular health, comfort, and quality of life. Previous vein experience is not required. We welcome providers from surgical, procedural, dermatology, cardiology, vascular, emergency medicine, or primary care backgrounds who are eager to develop expertise in venous and lymphatic medicine. We are committed to training the right candidate.

Our commitment to outstanding patient outcomes is reflected in our consistently high patient satisfaction and hundreds of five-star reviews. As a member of our team, you'll join a practice known for innovation, compassion, and excellence in vascular care.

What You'll Do

Initially, your clinical responsibilities will focus on:

• Conducting new patient consultations and follow-up visits
• Developing individualized treatment plans for venous disease (per established protocols)
  
• Review venous ultrasound studies (training provided)
• Educate patients about treatment options and post-procedure care
• Performing preoperative evaluations
• Collaborating with our physicians and vascular laboratory team to provide comprehensive outpatient care
• Building long-term relationships with patients throughout their treatment journey

Professional Growth Opportunity

This position is designed to build a strong clinical foundation in outpatient vascular medicine through consultations, diagnostic evaluation, ultrasound interpretation, treatment planning, and perioperative care. As experience, confidence, and practice needs evolve, providers may have the opportunity to gain hands‑on procedural training and expand their clinical responsibilities. If you're looking for a specialty practice where you can develop advanced expertise, build lasting patient relationships, and grow alongside a nationally recognized vascular team, we'd love to hear from you.

Schedule

• Monday through Friday, exact schedule TBD
• Call schedule: 12 weeks out of the year to take after hours phone calls for urgent patient concerns
• Patient load: Typically 12-16 patients per day after training ends. We do NOT double book!

Why This Role Is Unique

• Opportunity to build long-term specialty expertise in venous disease
• Collaborative, physician-led practice with exceptional mentorship
• Develop advanced skills in venous ultrasound interpretation and vascular medicine
• Longitudinal patient care with the ability to follow patients throughout their treatment journey
• Future opportunity to expand into hands‑on procedural experience as the practice grows and clinical proficiency develops

Ideal Candidate

• Licensed NP or PA in CA
• Surgical, interventional, dermatology, emergency medicine, or vascular experience is helpful but not required
• Strong patient communication skills and attention to detail
• Comfortable working both independently and as part of a team
• Strong collaborator
• Can keep up with fast paced environment
• Take constructive feedback well
• Wants to learn and grow knowledge base by staying up to date with clinical guidelines and research in venous disease.
  

Compensation & Growth

• Competitive compensation based on experience
• Opportunity for productivity incentives
  Full medical and dental benefits, profit sharing 401k (eligible after one year), PTO and holiday pay.
• Retention bonus: End of Year 1 $5,000, Year 2 $7,500, Year 3 $10,000
