Mayo Clinic Arizona is seeking a motivated Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant (NP/PA) to join our outpatient cardiology team. NP/PAs within the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine work within care teams comprised of both physicians and NP/PAs working collaboratively.

Together, the teams provide care for a wide range of cardiac patients across subspecialities including general cardiology, valve clinic, heart rhythm clinic, advanced heart failure/cardiac transplant clinic, adult congenital heart disease clinic, vascular clinic, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy clinic. Additionally, the APP will collaborate with other subspecialities and primary care both within and outside of Mayo Clinic.

The NP/PA will be expected to see conditions including but not limited to hypertension, hyperlipidemia, preventive cardiology, congestive heart failure, atrial and ventricular arrythmias, coronary artery disease, valvular disease, and peripheral vascular disease. They will be expected to support the needs of clinic.
