Dermatology Nurse Practitioner (DCNP)

Full-time · South Denver · A physician-owned specialty practice expanding into comprehensive general dermatology.

Employment
Full-time
Location
South Denver, CO
Department
Medical Dermatology
Experience
12–36 months in dermatology

Please note: this position is only for Nurse Practitioners with previous dermatology experience. Physician Assistants and RNs need not apply.

About the Role

For more than twenty years, Colorado Skin & Vein has earned a reputation for clinical excellence, innovation, and exceptional patient care. As demand for our services continues to grow, we are expanding our practice to include comprehensive general dermatology and are seeking an experienced Dermatology Nurse Practitioner to help lead the continued growth and evolution of this set of services.

This is not simply another dermatology position; it is an opportunity to join a well-established, physician-owned specialty practice with an exceptional reputation while helping expand an already successful clinical program.

You will join an experienced team with established clinical systems, proven operational support, and a strong referral base. Rather than building a practice from scratch, you will play an important role in expanding and refining our dermatology services while bringing your own clinical expertise and ideas to the practice.

We are seeking an independent clinical provider who enjoys practicing excellent medicine, embraces responsibility, and values the opportunity to make a meaningful impact. While our physicians and providers are always available as collaborative resources, this position is designed for an experienced provider who is comfortable making independent diagnostic and treatment decisions and taking ownership of those decisions.

If you are looking for a practice where your experience is valued, your ideas are welcomed, and your professional growth is encouraged, we’d love to meet you.

Compensation & Career Growth

We believe exceptional providers should be rewarded for the value they create. This position offers a competitive base salary, comprehensive benefits, and a physician-inspired production compensation model that provides outstanding long-term earning potential. Our philosophy is simple: providers who help grow the practice and deliver exceptional patient care should share in that success.

Unlike many traditional Nurse Practitioner positions, this role offers a unique opportunity to significantly increase compensation through clinical productivity and practice growth while enjoying the stability and support of an established physician-owned specialty practice.

As our dermatology services continue to expand, this position offers the opportunity to build a long-term career with increasing professional responsibility, clinical autonomy, and financial reward.

Key Responsibilities

  • Independently evaluate, diagnose, and treat patients with medical dermatologic conditions
  • Perform dermatologic procedures appropriate to training, experience, and credentialing
  • Exercise sound, evidence-based clinical judgment while accepting ownership and accountability for clinical decisions
  • Collaborate with physicians on complex or unusual cases while maintaining a high degree of clinical independence
  • Help refine and improve existing clinical documentation templates, treatment protocols, and care pathways
  • Identify opportunities to enhance clinical quality, consistency, and patient outcomes
  • Stay current with advances in dermatology and incorporate appropriate evidence-based treatments into clinical practice
  • Foster a positive, collaborative culture while serving as a clinical resource for staff and colleagues
  • Contribute to the continued growth and reputation of the dermatology service through outstanding patient care and professionalism

Required Qualifications

  • Current, unrestricted Colorado Nurse Practitioner license (or eligibility for licensure prior to start date)
  • AANP or AANC board certification
  • Dermatology Certified Nurse Practitioner (DCNP) certification, or eligibility to obtain certification within an agreed-upon timeframe
  • Minimum of 12–36 months of dermatology clinical experience
  • Current DEA registration (or eligibility to obtain prior to start date)
  • Current BLS certification
  • Experience performing skin biopsies, excisions, cryotherapy, and other common office-based dermatologic procedures
  • Proficiency with electronic medical records (EMR) and electronic prescribing
  • Eligibility for credentialing with Medicare and commercial insurance carriers

Benefits

  • 401(k)
  • Health insurance
  • Dental insurance
  • Vision insurance
  • Paid time off
  • Employee discount
  • Flexible schedule
  • Professional development assistance

Angel Croce, Staff Manager at Colorado Skin & Vein in Denver

Angel Croce

Staff Manager

Angel has been in healthcare for more than 20 years. Her journey began in 2004, after her father suddenly passed away from a stroke. Losing him was a life-changing experience, and it inspired her to choose a career where she could help others and give patients and their families the care, compassion, and support they need during difficult times.

Throughout her career she has worked across cardiology, neurology, family practice, and urgent care — each experience helping her grow both personally and professionally. She now works in vascular care and aesthetics, where she enjoys building relationships with her patients, helping them understand their care, and making sure they feel comfortable and supported throughout their journey.

Outside of work, Angel is a proud mom of two. Family is incredibly important to her, and in her spare time she loves being outdoors with her husband and their two dogs — hunting, fishing, and enjoying Colorado.

For Angel, healthcare is more than a career — it is personal. What started as a way to honor her father’s memory has become more than two decades of caring for others, and she is grateful to keep doing something that means so much to her every day.
