Peterson Health is seeking a Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner to join our Cardiology team in the beautiful Texas Hill Country. This is an excellent opportunity to provide high-quality, patient-centered cardiovascular care with support from an established health system, experienced providers, dedicated clinical staff, and a strong referral network.

Who we are:

For over 75 years, Peterson Health has been an independent, not-for-profit rural community hospital located in the heart of the Texas Hill Country in Kerrville, TX. We are recognized as one of the nation’s Best Places to Work and pride ourselves on our compassionate patient centered care and team-oriented culture.

Where we are:

Known for its natural beauty and relaxed pace of life, Kerrville draws both residents and visitors with abundant outdoor recreation—from hiking and camping in nearby river parks to kayaking, fishing, and hunting across the surrounding Hill Country landscape.

Together, these elements make Kerrville a uniquely well-rounded community where education, the arts, and family life thrive side by side.
