Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant

Pioneers in patient-centered care: Latham Medical Group has been a cornerstone of primary care in the Capital Region for decades. This practice was one of the first to transition to the patient centered medical home model, putting patients at the forefront of the practice’s decisions and leveraging technology like the patient portal, digital intake, and scheduling to streamline processes and communication. Enjoy a friendly, business-casual environment with mentorship and access to administrative and specialty support teams.

Clinical autonomy within collaborative care: You’ll work on a dedicated care team—paired with physicians and fellow advanced practice providers—to manage a specific panel of patients of the practice. This structure fosters strong patient relationships and continuity of care within a supportive, collaborative environment.

Centrally located, multi‑specialty environment: Latham Medical Group is located in CCP’s Wellness Way health park in Latham, NY, opened in 2024, offering a modern, thoughtfully designed environment for both providers and patients—just minutes from Albany and surrounding Capital Region communities.
