Urology Nurse Practitioner or Physician Assistant - Outpatient

The Medical College of Wisconsin’s Department of Urology is seeking an Advanced Practice Provider (APP) to provide primary or specialty medical care within the outpatient setting. This position is located in Milwaukee, WI at our Froedtert Hospital main campus site. The Advanced Practice Provider (APP) works as a member of a multidisciplinary health care team who will contribute to excellence in program administration, patient care, patient safety, research, quality improvement, and teaching.

Position Highlights:

• Full-time position within the Urology Department.
• Outpatient clinical care responsibilities.
• Primary practice location at Froedtert main campus.
• Expanding APP responsibilities within the Department of Urology, offering ongoing professional growth and development opportunities.
• Department-supported CME allowance available through the Department of Urology Academic Expense Policy.
• Opportunity to join a collegial, team-oriented environment committed to high-quality patient care and innovation in radiology services.

Schedule:

• 5 Days per week.
• No weekend or holidays.
• No call.
• 40 hours per week with 8-hour shifts.

Department/Division Highlights:

Largest urology residency program in Wisconsin, with exposure to highly diverse patient populations across urban, suburban, rural, VA, pediatric, tertiary, and community settings. Residents rotate through Froedtert Hospital, Children's Wisconsin, the Clement J. Zablocki VA Medical Center, and community hospitals

• Comprehensive subspecialty coverage with fellowship-trained experts across essentially every major area of urology, including:

  • Urologic oncology.
  • Robotics/laparoscopy.
  • Female pelvic medicine & reconstructive urology.
  • Stone disease/endourology.
  • Infertility and andrology.
  • Pediatric urology.
  • Sexual dysfunction.
  • Neurourology and voiding dysfunction.
  • Reconstructive urology.

• Strong robotic and minimally invasive surgery culture. MCW has emphasized robotic education and advanced surgical innovation for years, including resident-funded advanced training experiences in robotic kidney surgery, robotic microsurgery, robotic urinary diversion, MRI-fusion biopsy, and focal therapy techniques.

• Rare balance between academic medicine and practical clinical autonomy. Many elite academic programs are highly subspecialized and narrowly tertiary-care focused. MCW combines tertiary/quaternary care with meaningful community urology exposure, helping trainees become comfortable in both academic and private-practice environments.

• Faculty accessibility and mentorship culture. Compared with some very large coastal academic programs, MCW’s department size allows residents and junior faculty to work closely with senior faculty leaders while still maintaining strong subspecialty breadth. The department includes nationally recognized experts while remaining relatively collaborative and approachable in structure.

• Strong partnership ecosystem. The department benefits from MCW’s broader academic partnerships with:

  • Froedtert Health.
  • Children's Wisconsin.
  • The VA system.

This creates a broad referral base and a wide spectrum of pathology and surgical complexity.

• Longstanding investment in innovation and education. The department has repeatedly supported resident travel fellowships and advanced procedural learning opportunities nationally, which is not universal among urology programs.

• Exceptional pediatric integration through Children's Wisconsin, the state’s only freestanding children’s hospital. That gives residents exposure many programs cannot match regionally.

• Robust research accessibility for residents and faculty. MCW specifically highlights:

  • Dedicated research support staff.
  • Full-time research nurses.
  • Biostatistical support.
  • Opportunities for clinical and translational research.
  • National meeting presentations.

Qualifications:

Preferred Experience:

• Previous APP Urology experience preferred.
• Open to new grads or experienced APP’s.

Minimum Education:

• Advanced Practice Registered Nurse: Master’s Degree or higher in Nursing from a nationally accredited organization.
