Job description

Primary Care Physician | Peoria, Arizona Nov 4, 2026

Be the Physician You Trained to Be Own your pace, know every patient, and care for the people who keep a city running. Picture a new practice where you know every patient by name, every visit runs as long as the medicine needs, and you earn highly competitive compensation with no production targets attached. That practice is ready for its founding physician in Peoria, Arizona.

What This Seat Gives You

Time with every patient. Visits of 30 to 60 minutes, set by you and the medicine. A panel you know by name. 800 to 1,000 patients, about half the size of a standard primary care panel. Medicine measured by results. Your compensation rewards how well your patients do, so your day belongs to them. Your hours go to patients. The model runs almost entirely outside insurance billing, which keeps your inbox light and your evenings free. Care that reaches past the exam room. Patients reach you by phone and secure message, so you solve problems early and keep people well. Variety that keeps medicine interesting. Full scope primary care for adults and their families, plus occupational health for the first responders and crews who serve the community.

Compensation That Rewards Great Medicine

You earn a highly competitive base salary, plus a sign on bonus and an annual incentive tied to patient outcomes. Your income is secure from day one, and it grows as your patients get healthier.

• Medical license, DEA, malpractice, and CME paid for you
• 401(k) with employer match
• Medical, dental, and vision plans, plus an employer funded HSA
• Free in person and virtual care membership for you
• Employer paid life and disability insurance
• Paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays

The Support Behind You

You lead the medical care of a full service health center, with everything your patients need under one roof: primary care, chronic condition management, occupational health, physical therapy, mental health, and wellness coaching. You practice at the top of your license, alongside at least two advanced practice providers and a dedicated care team. Behind the clinic stands a national leader in advanced primary care, with more than 680 health centers in 41 states, proven population health tools, and a physician community that gathers for journal clubs and grand rounds.

Why This Seat, Why Now

Primary care across the West Valley is growing fast inside large systems built around volume. This practice is built around the relationship instead, and it gives you the time and autonomy that model was designed to protect. The health center is new, and its first physician defines it. You set the tone of the practice, help build the team, and shape how an entire employer community receives care. Founding seats like this open rarely, and the physician who takes it has the most influence over what it becomes.

Life in Peoria

Peoria gives you a family friendly suburb, strong public schools, and sunshine almost every day of the year, all within the reach of a major metro. Hiking, biking, golf, and boating at Lake Pleasant Regional Park, right at the north end of the city. New neighborhoods and established ones, with easy freeway access across the West Valley. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport within an hour for easy travel home and away. Arizona's flat 2.5% state income tax, so more of your compensation stays with your family.

Is This Your Practice?

• Measures a great day by the relationships built and the illness prevented
• Wants the freedom to give each patient the time the medicine calls for
• Is ready to build a clinic from the ground up and lead a team as a colleague
• Enjoys variety, and welcomes occupational, sports, or first responder care alongside full scope primary care
