The PA positions offer the opportunity to connect with people on a one-on-one basis, as well as work with physicians in various orthopaedic subspecialties. Call is currently 1 in 16.

Weekday evening call is minimal and usually entails answering patient messages. PAs with extensive orthopaedic experience are invited to staff our Ortho Urgent Care hours, which are also paid separately.

Orthopaedic Surgical PA responsibilities include, but are not limited to first assist at surgery, H&Ps and assist in the office with the full spectrum of patient care, including ultrasound-guided injections, casting/splinting, postoperative management, follow-up care, patient messages, EMR documentation, and injection clinics. They also assist with hospital rounding and orthopaedic consults. The opportunity to staff Tri-State Ortho Urgent Care hours is optional but encouraged and pays separately.

A minimum of two years of PA experience is preferred. Surgical experience and orthopaedic knowledge is required. Prior orthopaedic experience is strongly preferred. Candidates must be organized, detailed-oriented, caring and passionate about patient care, and possess good bedside manner and excellent interpersonal skills. EMR experience is also required.

Tri-State has four office locations in the Pittsburgh area, including McCandless, Seven Fields, Robinson Township and Fox Chapel.
