This full-time position, based primarily at our new, state-of-the-art Marketplace facility, offers an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated and skilled Advanced Practice Provider (APP) to join the Musculoskeletal Imaging team within the Department of Imaging Sciences and play a key role in enhancing patient access to care and improving procedural throughput in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

The Musculoskeletal Imaging APP will be responsible for onsite care, with primary duties including independently performing ultrasound-guided joint injections and aspirations. Additional responsibilities include contrast administration coverage, CT and MRI protocoling, obtaining informed consent, delivering patient education, and maintaining clear communication with ordering providers. The APP will work closely with radiologists, technologists, nursing staff, and administrative team members to ensure high-quality patient care that aligns with professional scope of practice and current New York State regulations. The role also includes supporting the education of students and new employees through clinical teaching and skills training.


Candidates should be prepared to develop proficiency across the full range of musculoskeletal imaging procedures and diagnostic workflows. This position requires the ability to work independently while contributing to team-based care. Ideal applicants will have prior experience in orthopedics or radiology and a strong motivation to practice at the top of their license. The APP will be expected to become proficient in preparing MSK imaging studies for radiologist interpretation and in solving routine diagnostic challenges.


This position may also expand to include provider support at other locations, including Strong Memorial Hospital. Additional opportunities for evening moonlighting coverage and potential productivity bonuses are available upon successful completion of orientation and training.

Qualifications:
Qualified applicants must hold a current New York State license as a Physician Assistant or Family Nurse Practitioner and have active BLS and/or ACLS certification. A minimum of one to two years of clinical practice experience is required. Previous experience in radiologic or orthopedic procedures is strongly preferred.
