Dermatology Physician Assistant

Emerald Resource Group • White Plains, NY

8d • Onsite

About The Position

Dermatology Physician Assistant Patients do not come in for a diagnosis alone. They come for clearer skin, calmer symptoms, and a plan they can follow. In this role, you own that outcome from the first visit through follow-up: accurate assessment, decisive treatment, and care that holds up between appointments. Your work expands access to high-quality dermatology without lowering the standard of the visit.

Requirements

• Graduate of an accredited PA program with current NCCPA certification and an active state license, or eligibility before start.
• Dermatology experience, or a strong primary-care/surgical foundation plus a documented plan to reach independent clinic productivity within the agreed ramp.
• Demonstrated skill in skin exams, dermoscopy basics, biopsy technique, and suture closure appropriate to site and diagnosis.
• Comfort managing chronic inflammatory disease, skin-cancer pathways, and patient education on topicals, systemics, and photoprotection.
• Clean, timely documentation and accurate procedure coding without rework.
• DEA registration, or ability to obtain it, if prescribing controlled medications is in scope for the practice.

Responsibilities

• Evaluate and manage a full clinic panel of medical, surgical, and cosmetic dermatology patients, closing each visit with a documented plan the patient can execute.
• Diagnose and treat common and complex skin, hair, and nail conditions, escalating atypical or high-risk findings to the supervising physician the same day.
• Perform in-scope procedures—biopsies, excisions, cryotherapy, and related minor surgery—with complication rates and specimen quality that meet clinic standards.
• Raise appropriate-visit capture and reduce avoidable return visits by setting clear treatment timelines, medication counseling, and follow-up criteria.
• Keep charts, coding, and procedure notes complete and defensible the day of service so revenue and compliance do not lag care.
• Coach medical assistants and front-office staff on prep, consent, and aftercare so room turnover and patient instructions stay consistent.
• Contribute to protocol updates for acne, psoriasis, eczema, skin-cancer surveillance, and biologic monitoring based on outcomes you see in clinic.
