Physicians Assistants Jobs
For Entry-Level Physicians Assistants and Nurse Practitioners, our Advanced Training Program helps equip you while you are getting used to your new position.
How the Advanced Training Program Works
We offer a 6 month program in which we take newly graduated Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants and help them adapt to the flow of clinic. We provide daily clinical case discussions with seasoned physicians who can help their decisions making. Each trainee also has access to a clinical preceptor while they are seeing patients for any questions/concerns or advice they may need. Additionally, we start each trainee at a much slower pace with appointments and provide guidance on how to best utilize the other members of the medical team. As the trainee progresses we gradually ramp up their schedules to those of a full time provider. Finally this program provides the trainees with both increased knowledge and confidence while also ensuring they always have a friendly provider they can call for advice—even after the program ends!

PROVIDER TESTIMONIALS
I have had the joy of working for GVHC for over 30 years, and have learned to understand and admire people from many different cultures and backgrounds. Experiencing Mexican empanadas, Punjabi pastries, and wearing kurtas from India and Pakistan are samples of the wealth of cultural experience here. I have written insulin doses in Chinese characters for elders who did not understand Arabic numerals. And the challenge and privilege of taking a healing journey with my patients toward their better health just never grows old.
Working at GVHC has given me the ability to live in a “big city that thinks it’s a small town”. I have the ability to live in a great climate without snow nor humidity – but don’t have to deal with the Bay Area or Southern California housing prices nor traffic. You are close enough to the Bay area to be able to take a weekend trip to see a play or the Giants game, or go up to the foothills and see the snow.
Golden Valley Health Centers allows flexibility in order to be able to spend quality time with your family and loved ones while still having a fulfilling career as a physician. You can serve the most grateful, caring population who truly need and appreciate the care you give.
It is an honor for me to work for the underserved population. It is such a humbling experience. I, myself came from a poor family, from a third world country. For me working in Golden Valley Health Centers is like serving and taking care of my own people. I know where they are coming from. Also, I may have a challenging role right now but I take pride in serving them and in making a difference.
I love working at GVHC because of the opportunity of providing quality care to the underserved population. Working here for the past 13 years did not only give me the opportunity for personal and professional growth but had given me the chance to be a part of its mission and vision.
