This full-time role focuses on exceptional patient care, clinical excellence, and a collaborative work environment.

Job Responsibilities

Responsibilities include assessing new surgical patients for both general and bariatric procedures, developing comprehensive and individualized care plans, and providing expert post-operative management to ensure optimal recovery. The APC will conduct hospital rounds twice a week, supplementing office consultations as needed, and will build and manage a panel of weight loss patients, overseeing both new consultations and ongoing follow-up care. Additionally, the role includes occasional on-call responsibilities to provide coverage as necessary.

Qualifications

Qualified candidates must have completed an accredited Advanced Practice Clinician (APC) program, such as a Master’s in Nursing or Physician Assistant studies, and hold relevant certifications. Proven clinical expertise in evaluating surgical candidates and managing post-operative care is essential, along with specialized knowledge and sensitivity in bariatric healthcare. Strong communication and interpersonal skills are required to collaborate effectively within a multidisciplinary team.

Working Hours

This position operates Monday through Friday, from 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, balancing hospital rounds with office-based patient consultations in a professional, inclusive, and supportive environment. Mercy Bariatrics and Weight Management is dedicated to elevating patient care through innovation and compassion, and we invite professionals who are committed to improving patient outcomes with a warm and professional approach to apply.
