Job description

Nurse Practitioner (Neurology) - Scottsdale, AZ - Outpatient Adult Neurology with Structured Mentorship

Overview & Highlights:

Location: Scottsdale, Arizona
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–5:00 PM
Compensation: $120,000–$170,000 per year, based on experience
Position Type: Full-time, direct-hire W-2 employee position
Patient Volume: Approximately 12 patients per day
Appointment Length: 60-minute new patient visits, 30-minute follow-ups
Call: No nights, no weekends, no call
Training: Structured mentorship and hands‑on specialty development in adult neurology
Benefits: Medical, dental, 401(k), PTO, paid holidays, malpractice coverage, and a CME allowance

Location & Logistics:

Work Environment: Established outpatient adult neurology clinic
Coverage Model or Hours: Monday–Friday, 8:0 AM–5:00 PM, with a consistent weekday clinic schedule
Travel: None — this is a 100% on‑site position at a single clinic location
On-Call: None
Patient Population: Adults across a broad range of acute and chronic neurological conditions
Start Timeline: We are hiring for the right long‑term fit and can be flexible on timing

About the Opportunity / A Day in the Life:

This is adult neurology at a pace that lets you actually practice it. You will see roughly 12 patients a day, with 60 minutes for a new consult and 30 for a follow‑up — enough room for a real neurological exam, a careful history, and a conversation the patient understands before they leave.

A typical day moves between new neurological complaints and established patients you are managing over time: reviewing imaging and diagnostic studies, adjusting medications, tracking disease progression, and bringing complex presentations to the physicians you work alongside. The case mix is broad — migraine and headache disorders, movement disorders, neuropathy, and other chronic and acute neurological conditions.

The role also opens the procedural side of the specialty. You will have the opportunity to train in and perform Botox injections, occipital nerve blocks, trigger point injections, and carpal tunnel injections, plus exposure to Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) programming. If you are an experienced Nurse Practitioner who wants to move into neurology, this is built for that transition: the mentorship is structured and the physicians expect to teach.

Why This Role Stands Out:

A schedule you can plan a life around — Monday through Friday, no nights, no weekends, no call, no travel
Appointment lengths that respect the specialty — 60-minute new patient visits and 30-minute follow-ups instead of a packed template
Real procedural training — injection therapies, nerve blocks, and DBS programming exposure, learned with physician support rather than thrown at you
A genuine path into neurology — experienced Nurse Practitioners from other specialties are welcome, with structured mentorship to get you there
Broad adult neurological case mix — from common headache and neuropathy presentations to more complex chronic disease management
Collaborative, physician-supported practice — close access to neurologists while you build independent clinical judgment

What We're Looking For:

A Nurse Practitioner with a real interest in adult neurology and specialty medicine
Strong clinical assessment skills and sound, independent medical decision‑making
A provider who values patient education, continuity, and individualized treatment planning
Someone comfortable collaborating closely with physicians while growing into clinical autonomy
Interest in learning office‑based neurological procedures and injection therapies
A dependable clinician who welcomes mentorship and ongoing professional development

Job Duties & Responsibilities:

Evaluate and manage adult patients presenting with acute and chronic neurological conditions
Perform comprehensive histories, physical examinations, and focused neurological assessments
Develop, implement, and adjust individualized treatment plans
Order, review, and interpret diagnostic studies, laboratory testing, and imaging results
Prescribe and manage medications within the scope of Nurse Practitioner licensure and practice authority
Perform or assist with office‑based neurological procedures, including Botox injections, occipital nerve blocks, trigger point injections, and carpal tunnel injections, as trained and credentialed
Participate in training and clinical exposure related to Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) programming
Monitor treatment effectiveness, disease progression, and patient response to therapy
Educate patients and families on diagnoses, medications, treatment options, and long‑term management
Collaborate with collaborating neurologists and the wider clinical team on complex cases
Maintain timely, accurate clinical documentation in the electronic medical record
Take part in continuing medical education, clinical training, and quality improvement work

Required Qualifications:

Graduate of an accredited Nurse Practitioner program
Active Arizona Nurse Practitioner license, or eligibility to obtain Arizona licensure
Appropriate national board certification (FNP, AGNP, or ACNP)
Current DEA registration, or the ability to obtain it prior to practice
Strong clinical assessment, communication, and documentation skills
Able to work full‑time, on‑site in Scottsdale, Arizona

This Role Is Likely a Fit If You…

Want to build a long‑term career in adult neurology, including if your current experience is in another specialty
Prefer a manageable daily census and appointment lengths that allow a thorough workup
Enjoy following patients over time through chronic and complex disease management
Want to add office‑based procedures and injection therapies to your clinical skill set
Value a physician-supported environment that treats teaching as part of the job
Want a predictable Monday–Friday clinic schedule with no call and no weekend coverage

This Role May Not Be a Fit If You…

Are not a graduate of an accredited Nurse Practitioner program
Do not hold, and are not eligible to obtain, an Arizona Nurse Practitioner license
Do not hold FNP, AGNP, or ACNP national board certification
Cannot hold or obtain DEA registration before beginning practice
Are looking for a remote, hybrid, or telehealth position — this role is fully on‑site
Want an inpatient, emergency department, or hospital‑based setting rather than outpatient specialty clinic

Why Join Us:

We are an established outpatient adult neurology practice in the Scottsdale area, and we have built this role deliberately: a reasonable daily census, appointment lengths that make good neurology possible, and physicians who expect to mentor the Nurse Practitioner who joins them. The procedural exposure is real, the schedule is predictable, and the specialty knowledge you build here compounds for the rest of your career.

If you are a Nurse Practitioner looking for a substantive outpatient specialty role — with a workload you can manage, procedures you can learn, and a clinical team that will back you — we would like to hear from you.
