Nurse Practitioner

PriMED is a physician‑owned, independent medical group that has been serving the Dayton community for many years. We pride ourselves on fostering a supportive, team‑oriented environment where providers have the opportunity to make an impact and help shape the future of the practice.

The Nurse Practitioner (APP/NP) positively impacts the quality of patient care and the overall functioning of the organization through the application of advanced nursing knowledge and skills to improve the overall health of patients. APPs do not maintain their own patient panel. Instead, they work closely with our primary care physicians, helping manage same‑day and follow‑up visits while providing support for routine primary care needs. It is a highly collaborative model that allows our physicians and APPs to work together to provide excellent patient care.
