Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN) / Nurse Practitioner

About the Role

We are seeking a driven, intellectually curious, and hard-working Nurse Practitioner (APRN) to join our growing outpatient clinic associated with a surgery center in Cocoa, Florida.

This position offers a rare blend of exceptional lifestyle balance—a predictable four-day work week (Monday through Thursday) with no weekends and zero call obligations —alongside access to high-complexity medical care and innovative procedural therapeutics.

Our center participates in multiple cutting-edge clinical trials, giving patients access to next-generation medical devices and advanced therapies not available elsewhere in this geographic area. You will evaluate and manage a dynamic patient population spanning complex peripheral vascular disease and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), as well as patients seeking innovative therapeutic embolization options.

While previous specialty experience in vascular surgery or interventional radiology is welcomed, it is not required . We provide dedicated clinical training and physician mentorship for a provider eager to embrace medical complexity and master advanced subspecialty evaluation.

Clinical Scope & Patient Population

You will manage an active mix of new consultations, pre-procedural evaluations, and post-procedure follow-ups across two primary clinical tracks:

• Complex Vascular & ESRD Care:

• Comprehensive workup, ongoing clinical surveillance, and longitudinal management of patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD), chronic venous insufficiency, and end-stage renal disease requiring vascular access planning and maintenance.

• Evaluating multifaceted comorbidities where thorough, unhurried diagnostic assessment directly impacts long-term limb and vascular health.

• Therapeutic Embolization Service Lines:

• Evaluating candidates and managing outcomes for minimally invasive embolization procedures across diverse pathologies, including:

• Prostate Artery Embolization (PAE): Lower urinary tract symptoms secondary to BPH

• Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE): Dysfunctional uterine bleeding from fibroids or adenomyosis

• Hemorrhoidal Artery Embolization (HAE): Symptomatic, refractory internal hemorrhoids

• Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE): Chronic knee pain due to osteoarthritis

• Shoulder Artery Embolization (SAE): Adhesive capsulitis (frozen shoulder) and inoperable degenerative shoulder disease

• Plantar Fascia Embolization (PFE): Chronic, treatment-refractory plantar fasciitis

• Clinical Research & Advanced Devices:

• Collaborate with our research coordinators and primary investigators to screen, consent, and clinically track patients enrolled in active clinical trials evaluating next-generation devices and therapies. Prior experience with clinical trials is not necessary.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct detailed outpatient clinical evaluations, physical exams, and pre-operative risk assessments.

• Order, review, and correlate diagnostic imaging (duplex ultrasound, CT angiography, MR) and laboratory studies to formulate evidence-based treatment recommendations.

• Educate patients and their families thoroughly on procedural indications, expected recovery pathways, and alternative therapies.

• Manage post-procedural outpatient follow-ups, wound assessments, medication reconciliation, and longitudinal disease monitoring.

• Collaborate closely with our attending interventional physicians, nurse practitioners, nurse navigator, clinical staff, and research coordinators to ensure seamless continuity of care.

• Maintain timely, high-quality clinical documentation within the electronic medical record (EMR).

Qualifications

• Licensure & Credentials:

• Current, active, and unrestricted license as an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN / NP) in the State of Florida (or eligible to obtain prior to hire).

• Board certification as an FNP or AGNP (Adult-Gerontology Primary Care or Acute Care).

• Current BLS and ACLS certifications.

• DEA licensure is not necessary.

• Clinical Mindset:

• Intellectually curious with a commitment to deep clinical workups; thrives in managing the nuances of high-acuity, medically complex patients (particularly ESRD and limb-threatening vascular disease).

• High stamina and organizational capability to maintain momentum through a busy, productive clinical day.

Experience

• Outpatient clinic, internal medicine, nephrology, cardiology, general surgery, or subspecialty experience preferred. Prior vascular/interventional experience is a plus, but not mandatory—comprehensive clinical training will be provided.

Why Join Our Team?

• Balanced 4-Day Work Week: Work Monday through Thursday with 3-day weekends every week; no evening call, no hospital rounds, and no weekend commitments.

• Exceptional Employee Retention: Be part of a stable, highly collaborative practice culture where employee turnover is exceptionally low.

• Competitive Compensation & Growth: Highly competitive salary package commensurate with experience and support for professional development.
