Job Description

Nevada Pediatric Specialists is hiring a full-time pediatric nurse practitioner — CPNP-PC or FNP-C with at least two years of outpatient pediatric experience — for our Las Vegas and Henderson offices. We have been locally owned and pediatrician-owned since 2008. We are not a hospital division, not a private-equity roll-up, and not a revolving-door urgent care.

Why Advanced Practice Clinicians Stay Here

  • You are a clinician here, not overflow capacity: our nurse practitioners carry their own panels and their own continuity relationships. You are not the catch-all for whatever the physician schedule could not absorb.
  • Call is shared, and nurses carry most of it: parent call is rotated equitably among our nurse practitioners and physician assistant. Our pediatric RNs handle parent calls until 5 p. m. on weekdays. From 5 to 10 p. m. on non-holiday weekdays, the clinician on call takes parent calls directly. After 10 p. m. on weekdays, and throughout weekends and holidays, a pediatric RN is on call with you, taking and triaging parent calls before they reach you. No newborn nursery call — our pediatricians carry that at two tertiary care hospitals with Level III NICUs.
  • Physician collaboration down the hall: Nevada grants APRNs full practice authority, and with two years of experience you practice at the top of your license. When you want a curbside, six board-certified pediatricians are in the building, not on a callback list.
  • Genuinely collaborative: 11 clinicians — 6 board-certified pediatricians, 4 board-certified nurse practitioners, and 1 certified physician assistant — who curbside each other daily and run two sites as one group.
  • Built for efficiency: eClinicalWorks with mature pediatric templates and integrated AI-assisted documentation, in-house lab, telemedicine, same-day and walk-in access, online scheduling, and a 24-hour pediatric nurse advice line for established patients.
  • Current and evidence-based: full AAP-aligned immunization standards (we do not accept alternate-schedule or non-vaccinating families), universal electronic behavioral health screening, integrated behavioral health with REACH-trained providers, ADHD and asthma management, and obesity and weight-management programming.
  • Saturday clinic is part of this role, and it is staffed and paid for: we are opening Saturday hours at our Henderson office, 10 a. m. to 2 p. m., and this position carries them, with regular front desk and medical assistant support on site. In exchange you take either a pay differential for the Saturday shift or a full weekday off. Four hours on Saturday for an entire weekday back is a trade most clinicians take once and never want to give back, and we would rather tell you now than in a second interview.
  • Real growth: quality improvement, behavioral health integration, practice-level initiatives, and NP student precepting. 4.88 stars across more than 855 family reviews.

Compensation and Benefits

  • $115,000 – $165,000 per year total compensation — base salary plus productivity and quality bonuses
  • Relocation and/or signing bonus
  • 401(k) with 4% employer match

  • Dedicated CME time plus CME stipend

Requirements

  • MSN or DNP from an accredited nurse practitioner program
  • National certification as a CPNP-PC (PNCB) or FNP-C (AANPCB)
  • Minimum 2 years of experience in outpatient pediatrics
  • Willing to work Saturday clinic at our Henderson office, 10 a. m. to 2 p. m., as a scheduled part of this position, offset by a pay differential or a full weekday off
  • Active Nevada APRN license with prescriptive authority, or eligibility to obtain one, plus DEA registration and Nevada Board of Pharmacy controlled substance registration
  • Authorized to work in the United States — we do not sponsor or transfer J-1 or H-1B visas
  • Bilingual English/Spanish is a plus, not a requirement
