Mile Bluff Medical Center

Orthopedic Advanced Practice Provider (PA-C or NP)

Mile Bluff Medical Center Mauston, WI 53948, US

Orthopedic Advanced Practice Provider (PA-C or NP)

Build Something Meaningful. Practice with Purpose.

At Mile Bluff Medical Center, people come first - our patients, our providers, and our teams. As an independent, community-based healthcare organization, we believe healthcare decisions should stay local, allowing our providers to have a stronger voice, greater collaboration, and the ability to make a real impact.

We are seeking a Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner who is energized by relationship-building, teamwork, and the opportunity to help shape the future of orthopedic care in a rural community that deeply values access to specialty services.

 

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

  • No call responsibilities
  • No weekend coverage
  • Balanced mix of clinic and surgical experience
  • Direct partnership model with the orthopedic surgeon
  • Opportunity to help grow and influence the orthopedic service line
  • Supportive, team-oriented culture with strong provider collaboration
  • Independence to bring ideas forward and help shape workflows and patient experience
  • Practice where your voice matters and your contributions are visible

This role is ideal for someone looking for more than a traditional APP position - someone who wants to become part of a collaborative orthopedic program with the ability to grow professionally while making a meaningful impact on patients and the community.

 

Position Summary:

The Orthopedic Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner provides diagnostic and therapeutic services to patients under the supervision of a licensed physician. The Orthopedic Physician Assistant works within a cooperative unit, utilizing team effort with health care providers, co-workers, and the public to provide positive patient interaction.

What We Offer:

  • Competitive compensation package
  • Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, life, disability, retirement savings, paid malpractice, CME, and paid time off
  • Retirement savings plan with employer match
  • Relocation assistance available
  • Physician mentorship and collaborative practice support
  • Opportunity for professional growth and long-term practice development

Location

Located in the heart of south-central Wisconsin, Mauston offers the perfect blend of small-town living and outdoor recreation. Surrounded by lakes, rivers, trails, and natural beauty, the area provides an exceptional quality of life with easy access to Madison, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, and Chicago.

As the only hospital in Juneau County, Mile Bluff Medical Center serves as a vital resource for the region - allowing providers to build meaningful relationships with patients and make a lasting impact in the community they serve.
