Primary Care Provider - Nurse Practitioner

Job description

Frontier Direct Care | Dallas–Fort Worth/Austin Texas | Full-Time

Practice Medicine the Way It Should Be Practiced

Tired of 15-minute visits and 25-patient days? At Frontier Direct Care, our providers see fewer patients, spend 30–60 minutes per visit, and build real, long-term relationships with the people they care for.

Frontier Direct Care is a fast-growing direct primary care (DPC) organization serving employer-sponsored patient populations across Texas. Because our members' care is covered through their employer benefit plan, there's no fee-for-service billing pressure — no RVU targets, no coding-driven medicine. Just you, your panel, and the time to actually keep people healthy.

We're expanding into the Dallas–Fort Worth area with new clinics opening in: - Mesquite, TX 75150 - Duncanville, TX 75137 - Arlington, TX 76011 Austin, TX Pflugerville, TX

If you're a Family Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant who wants to practice full-scope primary care with genuine clinical autonomy, we'd love to talk.

What You'll Do

You'll serve as the primary clinician for a defined patient panel, supported by a dedicated Medical Assistant and a collaborating physician. - Provide longitudinal primary care: preventive care, chronic disease management, and acute visits - Manage chronic conditions (diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and more) with the panel size and visit time needed to intervene  before  conditions progress - Perform in-office procedures including I&Ds, suturing and suture removal, skin biopsies, and men's and women's health exams - See patients in person, by phone, and via secure video/text — typical visits run 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on patient need - Direct daily patient care and delegate tasks to your assigned Medical Assistant - Document visits and maintain records in our EHR - Provide after-hours patient access through a company-provided secure line (your personal number is never shared with patients) - Practice under a collaborating/delegating physician in accordance with Texas Medical Board requirements, with mentorship from our Medical Director team - Participate in weekly team meetings and 1:1s

What You'll Bring

Required: - Active, unencumbered Texas licensure as an APRN-FNP (national board certified)  or  PA (NCCPA-certified) - 2+ years post-graduate experience in family practice or primary care - Experience managing patients across the lifespan (pediatric through geriatric) - Hands-on procedural experience: I&Ds, suturing/suture removal, skin biopsies, IV placement, men's/women's health exams - Active, unrestricted DEA registration (or ability to obtain before start) - Current BLS certification (or ability to obtain within 30 days) - Comfort with electronic medical records and scheduling tools

Preferred: - Prior experience in direct primary care, concierge medicine, or employer-sponsored clinics - Bilingual (English/Spanish) - Experience owning a patient panel with a high degree of clinical autonomy - Telehealth experience or multistate licensure - A preference for lower-volume, higher-touch medicine over high-throughput fee-for-service

Why Frontier - Time with patients.  30–60 minute visits and a manageable panel — practice medicine, not throughput. - Autonomy with support.  You own your panel, backed by a collaborating physician and Medical Director mentorship. - A model that works.  Employers cover membership, so patients actually come in — and keep coming back. - Ground-floor growth.  Join as we launch new DFW clinics and grow with us
