Job description

Primary Care Physician (Geriatrics / Family / Internal Medicine)

Role Summary

Are you a compassionate physician looking to escape the exhausting volume demands of traditional fee-for-service medicine? We are seeking a dedicated Primary Care Physician to join our mission-driven, value-based team. In this deeply rewarding role, you will trade rapid-fire, episodic patient visits for the opportunity to build deep, long-term relationships with a smaller panel of vulnerable seniors. Leading a supportive team, you will deliver comprehensive, holistic care that focuses entirely on preventative medicine and patient well-being. If you are ready to see the direct, life-changing impact of your care every day while enjoying regular business hours and a highly collaborative clinical environment, we want to welcome you home to our practice.

Duties & Responsibilities

Holistic Assessments: Perform thorough, in-person clinical assessments to evaluate the physical, mental, and psychosocial needs of frail elderly patients.

Care Plan Development: Partner with and lead a multidisciplinary team to build, review, and adjust deeply personalized care plans for each senior.

Manageable Patient Volumes: Focus entirely on high-quality, comprehensive care with an average caseload of just 8 patients per day—giving you the time required to treat the whole person.

Community Outreach: Provide a blend of clinic-based medical care and impactful home visits to meet patients where they are most comfortable.

Continuum of Care: Oversee and coordinate safe discharges for acute, short-term, and long-term placement needs.

Mid-Level Collaboration: Provide clinical leadership, guidance, and oversight to Nurse Practitioners (NPs) and Physician Assistants (PAs) within the clinic infrastructure.

Dedicated Outpatient Focus: Manage care completely within the community setting—no hospital rounds required.

Other duties as assigned.

Required Qualifications

Education: Doctorate degree (MD or DO) from an accredited medical school.

Residency Training: Successful completion of a medical residency program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).

Licensure: An active, unrestricted State Physician License with full eligibility to enroll as a provider for Medicare and Medi-Cal/Medicaid patients.

Registrations: Active state CDS certification and valid DEA registration without restrictions.

Life Support: Ability to obtain CPR and First Aid certifications within 180 days of your hire date (certifications in-hand upon hire preferred).

Desired Qualifications

Clinical Experience: 2 to 5 years of post-residency primary care experience, with a strong, dedicated focus on geriatric care or complex chronic disease management.

Board Certification: Board Certified or Board Eligible in Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, Geriatric Medicine, or Emergency Medicine is highly preferred.

Team Structure: Prior professional experience collaborating successfully within a team framework.
