Help with Nested If Syntax

I have a field StaffMemberType where I want to group values into different categories.  Having trouble with the syntax:

If the type is AnesthesiologistAssistant, CRNA or CertifiedAnesthesiologistAssistant then it's CRNA

IF its physician, medicaldoctor or doctorofosteopathy then it's physician

Else it's Other.  

This is what I have that is not working:

 

Job Family = IF('QGenda Compliance'[StaffMemberKey] IN ("AnesthesiologistAssistant", "CRNA", "CertifiedAnesthesiologistAssistant", "CRNA", IF('QGenda Compliance'[StaffPayrollId] IN ("Physician", "MedicalDoctor", "DoctorOfOsteopathy"), 'Physician', "Other")))

@Anonymous , Your logic seems correct I doubt the columns you are using

[StaffMemberKey] and [StaffPayrollId] they do not seem like column hold those values. Also, this is case sensitive comparison

 

Job Family = Switch( True() ,
'QGenda Compliance'[StaffMemberKey] IN {"AnesthesiologistAssistant", "CRNA", "CertifiedAnesthesiologistAssistant"}, "CRNA"
, 'QGenda Compliance'[StaffPayrollId] IN {"Physician", "MedicalDoctor", "DoctorOfOsteopathy"}, "Physician"
, "Other")

Revised, but still not working.  Only getting the result "Other"

 

Job Family = IF('QGenda Compliance'[StaffMemberKey] IN {"AnesthesiologistAssistant", "CRNA", "CertifiedAnesthesiologistAssistant"}, "CRNA", IF('QGenda Compliance'[StaffPayrollId] IN {"Physician", "MedicalDoctor", "DoctorOfOsteopathy"}, "Physician", "Other"))
