Job Description
Sierra Pacific Orthopedics, the leading full-service orthopedic and spine group in the San Joaquin Valley, is seeking a full time licensed PA/NP to add to one of our Orthopedic specialty practices.

This position will work predominately in treating injuries and pain in the knee, hip, shoulder and ankle including sports medicine. The position includes clinic and surgical assisting in a very fast growing practice. Call duties are included but are shared among the group which keeps the frequency of call down.
