Practice medicine in Chula Vista, one of Southern California's fastest-growing and most diverse communities. If you became a family medicine physician to build real relationships and actually practice medicine — not to sprint through 25 patients before noon — this is what you've been waiting for.

What your day actually looks like

• See 10–15 patients with appointments ranging from 20 to 60 minutes — time to actually listen, think, and treat.
• Work alongside a dedicated Whole Health Coach embedded in your care center, addressing behavioral, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors in‑house.
• Onsite lab and pharmacy — no referral friction, no waiting on outside results to make a clinical decision.
• Measured on outcomes and population health — not procedure volume or RVUs.
• Provide prevention, chronic care, acute care, and disease management within a true medical home model.
• Participate in clinical leadership: quality improvement, care model development, and peer community.

Compensation & Benefits

• Competitive base salary and yearly bonus opportunity.
• 2 weeks paid CME leave + $2,500 annual CME stipend.
• Premium medical, dental, vision coverage with HSA pre‑tax savings option.
• Matching 401(k) retirement program.
• Generous PTO, paid holidays, and Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
• Compensation: $232,506.00 to $348,758.00.
