Job Description
Nurse Practitioner (NP) / Physician Assistant (PA) – Pain Management
California Premier Pain Clinics is seeking a motivated and compassionate Nurse Practitioner (NP) or Physician Assistant (PA) to join our growing pain management team.
We are looking for providers interested in full-time or part-time opportunities, with scheduling flexibility based on availability. This position involves some travel between clinic locations; however, providers are not expected to travel to all of our offices. We will work to assign locations based on proximity to your home and operational needs. A company vehicle is provided for approved travel between clinic locations.
About Our Practice
California Premier Pain Clinics provides interventional pain management services with a focus on helping patients improve function and quality of life.
We do not provide chronic opioid management or routinely prescribe opioid medications. Medication prescribing is limited, with occasional use of a single-dose sedative when clinically appropriate, such as for a patient experiencing significant claustrophobia related to imaging.
Our services include:
- Patient evaluations and follow-up care
- Review of diagnostic imaging and treatment planning
- In-office corticosteroid injections
- Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) injections
- Joint and musculoskeletal injections

- Our DO/MD physicians also perform interventional spinal injections
