Physician Extender (PA or NP) / Sub-Investigator

Centricity Research/Lucas Research is a world-class, Clinical Research multisite network and Endocrinology practice located on the coast outside of Raleigh, NC. Living at the beach makes for an easy escape from the day-to-day; but, what if your normal day was so enjoyable that you don’t necessarily need an escape? While our beaches are undeniably incredible, we like to think the luxuries of life on the Crystal Coast pale in comparison to the benefits of being on the Centricity Research team. Our multisite network consists of state-of-the-art facilities located in Morehead City and New Bern.

We recently joined Centricity Research, now offering contract research organizations (CROs) and sponsors access to more than 35 clinical research sites, reaching 8.5 million geographically and ethnically-diverse patients, and over 155 experienced investigators who perform trials in more than 20 therapeutic areas, including infectious disease, neurology, endocrinology, oncology, cardiology, dermatology, vaccines, and more.

We are changing the way medicine and clinical research are practiced. As an industry leader, our unique model continues to inspire our collaborators and partners across the industry. We’ve developed a unique patient care model that is focused on treating patients like VIP guests. It requires commitment and full collaboration from every level of our team. The result is a tight-knit, responsible team approach that our patients feel. It is why we have such intense loyalty from the community we serve.

To us, there is nothing more fulfilling than believing in a cause larger than oneself. This is one of two mandatory requirements for the position. The other one is you have to actually be a physician. We are excited to hear from those who can check both of those boxes.
