Nurse Practitioner / Physician Assistant (NP/PA)- Primary Care

About the practice

Founded by Daniel C. Uba, Rapha Health has served the Fayetteville community since 2012. We operate on a biopsychosocial model of care — treating the full person, not just the chief complaint.

Our practice of approximately 6,000 active patients reflects the diversity of Fayetteville itself: families, elderly patients, veterans and military households from the Fort Liberty community, individuals managing complex chronic conditions, and patients who have historically lacked access to consistent, high-quality primary care. Serving this population is not incidental to what we do — it is why we exist.

Our team includes three providers supported by a full clinical staff. Physicians are available for consultation and collaboration daily — the oversight model here is designed to support your practice, not constrain it.

• Clinical responsibilities
• Provide comprehensive primary care to adult and family medicine patients

• Collaborate with physicians, NPs, PAs, and clinical staff
• Contribute to workflow and practice improvement as a valued team member

• Practice environment

• Supportive, provider-focused culture where clinicians have direct input into how care is delivered

Life in Fayetteville, NC

• Fayetteville is one of North Carolina's most affordable and genuinely livable cities — with a character shaped by its diversity, its military community, and its deep roots.
• Home to Fort Liberty, one of the largest military installations in the country — a community of veterans, active-duty families, and service members who make up a meaningful part of both the patient population and the broader community
• Strong public, private, and charter school options throughout the metro
• Safe neighborhoods and abundant outdoor recreation — parks, trails, and green space
• Cost of living well below state and national averages — your salary goes further here than almost anywhere else in North Carolina
• Active faith community, local arts, and a growing dining scene
• Convenient access to Raleigh (1 hour) and the broader I-95 corridor

Whether you have ties to the military community, are relocating from a higher cost-of-living market, or are simply looking for a place to settle and build — Fayetteville offers stability and quality of life that larger metros rarely match.
