Primary Care Nurse Practitioner

ConvenientMD Urgent Care • Full-time • Portland, ME • 11m ago

At ConvenientMD we are on a mission to make quality health and well-being more convenient for all – working to improve how patients and providers experience healthcare. Today, we are a full-service urgent care group making it easier for people to address their simple, immediate health needs at a reasonable cost. As we continue to grow, we are expanding our offering to include primary care.

We believe primary care needs to shift away from conventional thinking and old ways of working. People deserve thoughtful solutions that put their personal care needs at the center, proactively educate and connect them with resources, and help manage the confusion and complexity of downstream care. To deliver this type of highly personalized, hands-on care requires time most providers currently don’t have and is financially difficult. Our new Advanced Primary Care (APC) model seeks to change the status quo. Combining modern clinics with modern technology to deliver high-quality, easily accessible, team based care across in-person and virtual primary care, integrated with urgent care.

There's a job and then there's purposeful, transformative work. If you're looking for a great next step, and want to feel good about what you do, we'd love to hear from you.
