Are you passionate about making a difference during the earliest years of a child's development? Advanced Pediatric Therapies (APT) is seeking a compassionate and motivated Pediatric Audiologist to join our growing multidisciplinary team.
This is a unique opportunity to help build and expand pediatric audiology services within one of Northern Nevada's largest pediatric therapy practices.
