Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant focused on Primary Care and EDS

We are looking for an additional provider to help our Doctor with his EDS (Ehler's Danlos Syndrome) Patients. This is a rare genetic disease and Dr. David Chorley is the only provider in this region that is treating these patients.

In-house education and training would definitely play a part in learning more about the disease states and how to treat them. This is a very rewarding position and patients are desperate for help.

You would be assisting Dr. Chorley by seeing his patient base and building close relationships of your own with these patients. Dr. Chorley is booked out over a month and cannot keep up with the demand.
