Emergency Medicine APP – High Autonomy & Flexible Scheduling | Easton, MD

At USACS, care teams are fully supported, appropriately staffed, and structured so APPs can focus on patient care without unnecessary administrative burden. We’re adding an Emergency Medicine APP (Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner) to our team at UM Shore Medical Center at Easton in Easton, Maryland.
