Apex Interventional Pain Specialists is an advanced, physician-led practice dedicated to delivering minimally invasive, image-guided procedural and surgical solutions for chronic pain. We pride ourselves on providing personalized, outcome-driven care that improves function, reduces pain, and enhances quality of life.
We are seeking a Physician Assistant (PA-C) who is enthusiastic, collaborative, and passionate about the evolving field of interventional pain management. This is an exceptional opportunity to join a growing startup clinic, work directly with multiple board certified fellowship-trained interventional pain physicians, and help shape the future of pain care in Maine.
Position Overview
This part-time position offers a flexible schedule averaging 30hours per week, including two in-office clinic days and additional surgical support in the operating room as needed. The PA-C will participate in both office-based patient care and operative assisting for advanced interventional procedures.
Prior surgical or procedural experience is encouraged but not required—we provide a structured onboarding and mentorship program with hands-on training, shadowing, and gradual transition to independent clinic sessions and procedural support.
We are a primalry interventional practice that does not manage chronic opioid therapy; our model emphasizes restorative, procedural, and multidisciplinary approaches to pain.
