About The Position

Appalachian Mountain Health (AMH) is seeking a motivated and independent women’s health practitioner to be the sole women’s health clinician in Graham County, NC. This role requires confidence in independently providing a spectrum of women’s health services, as the nearest OBGYN practice and/or hospital with a labor and delivery unit is an hour away. The ideal clinician will offer reproductive, contraceptive, preventative health, and menopausal services to an established patient panel. This is a collaborative position, serving as a key member of the local clinic team and a regional network of providers.

Experienced practitioners and new graduates are welcome, provided they have demonstrable skills in women’s healthcare and a commitment to residing in the region for at least two years. The daily patient load is capped at 15.
