Jason Keable AGACNP-BC is highly trained in multiple specialties including internal medicine, cardiology, endocrinology, pulmonology, nephrology, neurology, urology, otolaryngology, emergency, and critical care medicine, etc. While they practice primarily in the hospital, scope of practice also covers the primary and secondary care settings.
No. According to the State of Arizona, a medical provider with the AGACNP-BC credential can practice independently of any physician oversight in the primary care, secondary care, and hospital settings. Jason Keable can also prescribe all medications including controlled substances as well as dispense and administer medications / pharmaceutical grade supplements at Verde Valley Concierge Medicine.
