Job description

Become the Physician Patients Have Been Searching For

Position

Integrative/Functional Medicine Physician (MD/DO)

Licensing

Active California license required. Licenses in additional states strongly preferred.

Experience

Prior clinical experience in integrative or functional medicine required

Engagement

1099 independent contractor agreement

Location

Remote (telemedicine). Practice from home or your own office.

Schedule

Four telemedicine days per week, set by mutual agreement, following a ramp-up period to build a full schedule. No call, no weekends.

Compensation

$250,000 to $790,000 per year. Comfortable starting compensation during ramp-up, growing as your schedule fills. Based on what our current physicians earn.

Malpractice

Coverage may be available

Practice Model

Cash-based, no insurance restrictions on visit time, testing, or treatment

Are you a physician who believes there is more to healing than managing symptoms? Do you find yourself drawn to the "why" behind a patient's illness, and frustrated when a 15-minute visit and an insurance formulary decide the answer for you?

If so, Holtorf Medical Group may be the practice you have been looking for. We are seeking a compassionate, independent MD or DO with integrative or functional medicine experience, ideally licensed in multiple states, to provide telemedicine care and help patients who have run out of places to turn.

About Holtorf Medical Group

Holtorf Medical Group is a nationally recognized, cash-based integrative and functional medicine practice led by Medical Director Dr. Kent Holtorf, a globally recognized expert who has trained hundreds of physicians in the art and science of integrative medicine.

We are known for solving complex, chronic cases, including thyroid and hormone disorders, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, Lyme and other chronic infections, and autoimmune conditions. Many of our patients arrive after seeing numerous other physicians without improvement. Our multidisciplinary practice combines the best of conventional medicine with evidence-based integrative care to find the root cause, restore function, and support long-term wellness.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Exceptional earning potential. Start with comfortable compensation while your schedule builds, then ramp up. Our current physicians earn $510,000 to $790,000 a year working just 17 to 20 hours per week, income most physicians would need a full 40-hour week to reach.
• Practice from anywhere. This is a fully remote telemedicine role. No commute, and you work from your own home or office.
• No call, no weekends. A sustainable schedule that leaves room for the rest of your life.
• Time to practice real medicine. Without insurance driving the schedule, you get unhurried visits and the freedom to order the testing and build the treatment plan your patient actually needs.
• Clinical independence. You make the clinical decisions. HMG provides the patients, the systems, and a collaborative clinical community.
• Learn from a leader in the field. Collaborate with Dr. Kent Holtorf, an internationally recognized authority in integrative and functional medicine who has personally trained hundreds of physicians.
• Put your integrative training to full use. Prescribe and manage advanced thyroid and hormone optimization protocols, and coordinate in-clinic therapies such as HBOT, EBOO/ozone, and IV nutrient therapy at HMG's El Segundo center.
• A field at an inflection point. Functional medicine's flagship 2026 conference drew a record turnout of clinicians from all 50 states and 40 countries, and IFM recently launched board-level certification pathways (FMCP and FMCP-M). You will be building expertise in one of the fastest-growing areas of medicine.
• High-tech, high-touch. Modern tools, including [Cerbo EHR and AI-assisted scribing, confirm], take care of the busywork so you can focus on the patient in front of you.

Scope of Services

• Conduct comprehensive, whole-person telemedicine evaluations, including detailed history, review of records, and advanced diagnostic testing, to uncover the root causes of chronic and complex illness.
• Develop and manage individualized treatment plans that combine conventional medicine with evidence-based integrative therapies.
• Provide ongoing care for patients with thyroid and hormone imbalances, chronic fatigue, autoimmune and inflammatory conditions, chronic infections, and metabolic dysfunction.
• Deliver preventive care, health maintenance, and lifestyle guidance that supports long-term wellness.
• Create an exceptional patient experience, making every person feel heard and cared for, whether by video, phone, or secure messaging.
• Handle follow-up for your patients, including calls, prescription refills, letters of medical necessity, and correspondence.
• Collaborate with HMG's clinical team on complex cases, treatment strategies, and the patient experience.
• Maintain accurate, timely documentation and comply with all applicable state and federal regulations.

Who You Are

You are a compassionate, detail-oriented physician with hands-on experience in integrative or functional medicine, and you put patients first. You are energized by complex cases and the puzzle of figuring out what everyone else missed. You communicate with warmth and clarity, take initiative, and are comfortable practicing independently. You are comfortable building strong patient relationships over video, and you see every day as a chance to learn something new. Most of all, you want to practice medicine the way it was meant to be practiced.

Qualifications

Required

• MD or DO with completed residency
• Active, unrestricted California Physician and Surgeon license (Medical Board of California or Osteopathic Medical Board of California)
• USMLE or COMLEX-USA completed
• Prior clinical experience practicing integrative or functional medicine
• Active DEA registration, or the ability to obtain one
• A private, HIPAA-compliant workspace and reliable high-speed internet
• Comfort with telemedicine platforms and EHRs
• Excellent bedside manner and strong written and verbal communication skills

Preferred

• Active, unrestricted medical licenses in one or more states in addition to California (strongly preferred)
• Board certification in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, or a related specialty
• IFM certification or other formal training in integrative or functional medicine
• Experience treating chronic, complex conditions

Engagement Terms

• Fully remote telemedicine, using your own workspace and equipment
• Four days per week, scheduled by mutual agreement, following a ramp-up period to build a full patient schedule
• No call and no weekends
• Malpractice coverage may be available
• Comfortable starting compensation during ramp-up, then compensation based on the services you provide
