About the Opportunity / A Day in the Life

We are seeking an experienced Pediatric Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant to join a growing, community-focused healthcare organization in Chandler, Arizona. This is an excellent opportunity for a provider who enjoys working with children and families, values continuity of care, and wants to make a meaningful impact on pediatric health outcomes.

In this outpatient role, you will provide comprehensive pediatric care to infants, children, and adolescents. Your day will include well-child visits, preventive screenings, developmental assessments, acute illness evaluations, chronic condition management, and family education.

You will work alongside physicians, medical assistants, nurses, and care coordination teams in a collaborative environment that supports quality care and efficient patient flow. The ideal candidate is confident in pediatric clinical decision-making, comfortable managing a busy outpatient schedule, and passionate about building trusting relationships with patients and their families.

Bilingual English/Spanish providers are strongly encouraged to apply, as the practice serves a diverse patient population.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Pediatrics-Focused Practice: Work exclusively in an outpatient pediatric setting, caring for children from infancy through adolescence.
• Meaningful Patient Relationships: Build lasting connections with children and families through preventive care, treatment, and ongoing follow-up.
• Collaborative Team Environment: Work with supportive physicians, nurses, medical assistants, and care coordination professionals.
• Clinical Autonomy: Apply your pediatric expertise while having access to an experienced clinical team.
• Community Impact: Help improve access to high-quality pediatric healthcare for families throughout the Chandler community.
• Growing Organization: Join an established, expanding healthcare organization with a strong commitment to patient-centered care.

What We're Looking For

• An experienced NP or PA with at least 2 years of pediatric clinical experience.
• A provider confident in managing common pediatric illnesses, preventive visits, and ongoing health concerns.
• Someone comfortable seeing infants, children, and adolescents daily while maintaining quality and compassionate care.
• A collaborative professional with strong communication skills and a family-centered approach.
• A provider who enjoys working with diverse communities; bilingual English/Spanish skills are highly preferred.
• Someone dependable, organized, and comfortable practicing in a busy outpatient pediatric environment.

Job Duties & Responsibilities

• Provide comprehensive outpatient pediatric care to infants, children, and adolescents.
• Conduct well-child examinations, annual physicals, and age-appropriate preventive screenings.
• Diagnose and manage acute pediatric illnesses and common childhood conditions.
• Evaluate and manage chronic pediatric conditions, including asthma, allergies, and other ongoing health concerns.
• Perform developmental assessments and monitor pediatric growth and milestones.
• Order, perform, and interpret appropriate diagnostic tests and laboratory studies.
• Develop and implement evidence-based pediatric treatment plans.
• Provide immunization counseling and administer or coordinate vaccinations according to recommended pediatric schedules.
• Educate parents and caregivers on nutrition, development, preventive care, and childhood health concerns.
• Collaborate with physicians, nurses, medical assistants, and other healthcare professionals to coordinate patient care.
• Maintain accurate, timely documentation in the electronic medical record (EMR).
• Coordinate referrals to pediatric specialists and ensure appropriate follow-up care.

Required Qualifications

• Active Arizona Nurse Practitioner (NP) or Physician Assistant (PA) license.
• Minimum of 2 years of clinical experience in pediatrics.
• Experience providing direct patient care in a pediatric clinical setting.
• Strong knowledge of pediatric assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and preventive care.
• Ability to independently manage routine pediatric visits and common childhood conditions within the provider's scope of practice.
• Excellent communication, clinical judgment, and patient education skills.
• Ability to work effectively in a collaborative healthcare environment.

Preferred Background

• Bilingual in English and Spanish strongly preferred.

• Are seeking an inpatient, hospital-based, or surgical position.
• Prefer a low-volume practice with a significantly lighter daily patient schedule.
