Join a collaborative care team and help make a lasting impact. This role offers a predictable weekday off while preserving continuity, extended hours coverage, and comprehensive primary care.

Responsibilities

• Provide patient-centered primary care across the lifespan, including acute, chronic, and preventative care.
• Complete histories, physical examinations, health screenings, diagnoses, and individualized treatment plans.
• Order and interpret laboratory tests, diagnostic studies, and imaging; communicate clinically significant results and close follow-up loops.
• Prescribe and manage medications, vaccinations, and appropriate therapies; educate patients about diagnoses, prevention, and practical barriers to treatment.

Productivity & Quality Expectations

This position uses a transparent productivity model intended to support access without compromising care quality. After a 90-day ramp‑up period, the initial expectations is an average of 16 completed patient visits per full clinical day.

• Provider performance includes completed visits, timely chart closure, results and inbox management, continuity, quality measures, patient access, and professional teamwork.
• Patient cancellations and no-shows are not treated as provider underperformance when the provider was available and completed assigned clinical work.

• Strong communication, teamwork, cultural humility, and commitment to caring for underserved communities.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience in an FQHC, community health center, or other safety-net setting.
• Experience with pediatric care, women's health, cervical screening, or chronic-disease management.
• Experience with eClinicalWorks or comparable EHR systems.

• 1 scheduled work-week day off
• Exact days and hours will be established
