Navigating the Clinical Component
Balanced, Hands-On Clinical Practice
In this role, you’ll experience a hands-on, patient-focused practice where procedure volume and clinic engagement are thoughtfully balanced. Your day-to-day is supported by advanced scheduling systems, a robust NP team, and modern, high-throughput facilities that allow for productive, rewarding clinical time without compromising quality of care.
With 60% of your week allocated to endoscopy, you’ll perform up to 15 procedures in a morning block, thanks to efficient 20-minute turnover times and a dedicated team. Routine GI consults, screening colonoscopies, and advanced therapeutic procedures form a steady and diverse patient mix. Epic’s MyChart integration automatically routes eligible patients to screening colonoscopy, giving you more procedural autonomy and clinical focus.
Advanced endoscopists can prioritize procedural time with minimal clinic responsibilities, while general GI physicians benefit from a balanced diagnostic and therapeutic schedule, backed by NPs who manage the majority of clinic visits.
