About The Position

Altheda Medical Center is seeking an experienced psychiatric provider, either a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant, to join their psychiatry team in a fully remote W-2 position. This role is best suited for a provider who values clinical quality, patient continuity, strong documentation, schedule stability, and working within a supportive outpatient medical practice. The provider will evaluate, diagnose, and manage patients with psychiatric and behavioral health needs, including medication management and longitudinal follow-up care. Altheda Medical Center is a growing multi-specialty outpatient medical center focused on providing accessible, high-quality, and coordinated care. Our services include primary care, psychiatry, urgent care, medical aesthetics, and specialty medical services.
