Job description

At Livingston Community Health, we're reshaping what healthcare looks like for underserved communities. Our mission is clear: deliver patient-centered, comprehensive care that treats the whole person regardless of background, income, or language. We are a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) deeply rooted in California's Central Valley, and we're looking for a Family Medicine Physician ready to make a lasting impact. If you're seeking a role where your medical expertise is valued, your voice matters, and your work directly transforms lives, this is it.

Why Join Us?

1. Work side-by-side with a diverse, mission-driven team of physicians, NPs, PAs, and behavioral health clinicians.
2. Be part of a patient-centered medical home where you can deliver whole-person care, not just check boxes.
3. Enjoy autonomy, support, and collaboration in a community-based, federally qualified health center (FQHC) setting.
4. Choose a schedule that fits your lifestyle: 4 or 5 day workweeks, built-in administrative time (4 hours per week), and a set 1-hour lunch with a closed office.

What You'll Do

1. Provide direct patient care across all age groups and acuity levels.
2. Perform routine and acute exams, develop treatment plans, prescribe medications, and follow up on labs and diagnostics.
3. Collaborate with other physicians, nursing, care coordination, and behavioral health teams to ensure integrated, wraparound care.
4. Share quality improvement ideas, perspectives on policy changes, or creation of new policies and clinical protocols with direct visibility to the CMO.
5. Attend all provider and leadership meetings and ensure exceptional care delivery with meticulous supervision and support of NPs/PAs.
6. Maintain timely and thorough documentation using our EHR system (NextGen), including task completion within 72 hours.

Who You Are

1. A California-licensed Family Medicine Physician with active DEA registration and BLS.
2. A graduate of an accredited MD or DO program with Board-Certification (or eligibility) in your specialty.
3. Passionate about working with diverse, underserved populations in a community primary care setting.
4. Grounded in evidence-based medicine, with excellent clinical decision-making and communication skills.
5. Calm under pressure and adaptable when things get unpredictable—you’re the kind of provider who steps up, not back.

Preferred Skills & Experience

1. Familiarity with chronic disease management, population health, and value-based care models.
2. Spanish-speaking proficiency (or another language spoken by our patient population) is a plus but not required.
3. Proficient in NextGen or another EHR platform.
4. Strong organizational skills and a collaborative mindset—you don't just work with a team, you build it up.

A Day in the Life

1. See a mix of in-person, telehealth, and same-day visits, including preventive care, sick visits, chronic care management, and follow-ups.
2. Lean on our clinical support staff (MAs, RNs, and administrative team) to help you work at the top of your license.
3. Spend your time focused on patient care, not insurance games—we've built systems that let providers do what they do best.

If you're seeking a community where you can lead, innovate, and make an impact every day, Livingston Community Health is ready for you. Apply today and rediscover the fulfillment that brought you to medicine in the first place.
