Jobs at The Urgent Care (Now Hiring) — 2 open

Position Summary:

At The Urgent Care, you'll see a real mix of patients and cases, from the sniffles to the stitches, without the burnout of a packed primary care panel or the chaos of an ER. You'll have the autonomy to run your own room, the backup of a collaborative team when you want a second set of eyes, and enough variety across our five locations that no two shifts feel the same.

We've built something patients trust since 2004, more than 500,000 of them and counting, and we're looking for a provider who wants to be part of the next chapter. If you're the kind of PA or NP who likes moving fast, thinking on your feet, and actually connecting with the people in front of you, you'll fit right in. We offer competitive pay, flexible full-time and part-time schedules, and genuine room to grow. Bring your skills, your bedside manner, and a little Louisiana warmth. We'll bring the rest.
