Altura Medical Associates /Mar Y Sol Mental Health Experts is expanding our women’s health services and is seeking an experienced Nurse Practitioner (WHNP, FNP, or AGNP) with a strong interest and clinical background in perimenopause, menopause, and hormone therapy.

This is an exciting opportunity for a provider who is passionate about women’s health and would like to focus their clinical work on perimenopause, menopause, hormone management, and healthy aging within a supportive, physician-led multidisciplinary practice.

• Conducting comprehensive menopause and hormone evaluations
• Prescribing and monitoring menopausal hormone therapy
• Ordering and interpreting appropriate laboratory testing
