Job description

Pediatrician – Founding Physician

New Pediatric Practice (De Novo) | Gallatin, Tennessee

Location: Gallatin, Tennessee

Employment Type: Full-Time. Practice Status: New Practice (Aligned with the Right Provider and Location)

Summary

Join a new practice in a growing Nashville suburb.

Build Something New — Where It’s Truly Needed

We are exploring the launch of a new pediatric practice in Gallatin and are seeking a pediatrician who wants more than a traditional associate role.

This is a rare opportunity to help build a practice from the ground up in a community with growing demand for accessible, high-quality pediatric care.

This is a provider‑led expansion with flexibility around timing and location to ensure the right long‑term fit.

From day one, you will play a meaningful role in shaping the clinical experience, care model, and community relationships of a practice built to last.

Why Gallatin?

• Located near Hendersonville and Old Hickory Lake
• Strong residential growth and ongoing new developments
• Expanding population of young families
• Access to Nashville while maintaining a suburban lifestyle

This market offers a strong balance of lifestyle and professional opportunity, with expanding demand for pediatric services.

The Role

• Provide comprehensive pediatric care to infants, children, and adolescents
• Build long‑term, trusted relationships with families
• Help shape clinic workflows, culture, and patient experience
• Participate in community outreach and local partnerships
• Collaborate closely with medical and operational leadership

Qualifications

• Board Certified or Board Eligible in Pediatrics
• Eligible for state medical licensure
• DEA license (or ability to obtain)
• Strong communication skills and collaborative mindset
• Interest in community engagement and practice‑building

Compensation & Support

• Highly competitive compensation package
• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Generous paid time off and holidays
• Malpractice coverage
• Full operational and administrative support

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is not a replacement role. It’s a chance to be a founding physician in a thoughtfully designed pediatric practice serving a community with real demand.
