MatchCura helps Nurse Practitioner students connect with clinical preceptors across Greater Los Angeles. Flat $1,700 — paid only when you're matched.
If your confirmed rotation falls through for reasons outside your control, we'll re-match you within 14 days at no extra cost. No second fee. No re-application.
Nothing is paid upfront. The flat $1,700 is invoiced only after you've reviewed and accepted a confirmed match. If we can't place you, you owe nothing.
You'll work directly with one local person — based in LA, in your time zone — from sign-up through paperwork. Not a ticketing system, not a chatbot. Reach us by email or phone whenever you need to.
We route your school's affiliation agreement, malpractice docs, and required forms so you can focus on prepping for clinicals instead of chasing signatures.
NP students placing clinicals in LA keep getting matched with preceptors that look fine on paper but are an hour away in traffic — often by services that have never set foot in the city. We started MatchCura because we kept seeing it. Local matching, done right, means knowing LA's clinics, health systems, neighborhoods, and yes, the freeways. Your school can be anywhere in the country — we just make sure the rotation works on the ground here.
Most of the students we place are enrolled outside LA — distance learners at national online programs (Walden, Frontier, Chamberlain, Maryville, Herzing) and brick-and-mortar schools across the country. Your program can be based anywhere; we focus exclusively on placing your clinical hours in Greater LA, and we route the affiliation paperwork to your school no matter where it is.
Small private practices in Brentwood, Pasadena, and Beverly Hills. Community clinics, urgent-care centers, and outpatient specialty offices across the Westside, the Valley, the SGV, the South Bay, Long Beach, and OC. We focus on the outpatient and clinic settings where NP rotations actually happen — and we know which ones welcome students.
A 20-mile match on paper can be a 90-minute commute on the 405 at 8 a.m. We factor real LA drive times — the 10, the 110, PCH, Sepulveda — and your class schedule. Your rotation should fit your real life, not just look good on a map.
Our preceptor network was built locally, one clinician at a time — across the Westside, the Valley, the SGV, the South Bay, Long Beach, and OC. That's why we can confirm matches faster than a service that's cold-emailing LA preceptors for the first time.

Because depth beats breadth — on the clinical side. We'd rather know every NP-friendly clinic on the Westside, in the Valley, the SGV, the South Bay, Long Beach, and OC than have a thin preceptor Rolodex spread across 50 states. To be clear: your NP program can be based anywhere in the country. The "LA" in our focus refers to where we place your clinical rotation, not where your school is.
Nothing is paid upfront. We invoice the flat $1,700 only after you've reviewed and accepted a confirmed match. If we can't place you, you owe nothing.
If your placement collapses for reasons outside your control, we'll re-match you within 14 days at no additional cost.
Any U.S. NP program — brick-and-mortar or distance/online — as long as your school will sign an affiliation agreement with the preceptor's site. Your school can be based anywhere; we focus on matching you with a clinical preceptor located in Greater Los Angeles. If you're not sure whether your program qualifies, just ask us.
The earlier the better — ideally 8–12 weeks before your rotation start date. Psych and Women's Health tend to fill earliest.
Once you confirm a match, we route the affiliation agreement and required forms between your school and the preceptor's site so you don't have to chase signatures.
