    • Weeknights: 6 PM - 6 AM (rotating)
    • Weekends: 1:9 rotation
  • Collaborative, team-oriented environment with strong system support
  • Interactions with residents given vibrant Internal Medicine Residency
  • Opportunity to precept and teach
  • Focus on continuity, compassion, and relationship-based care
  • Robust onboarding period with support from physicians and advanced practitioners

Ideal candidate:

  • Board-certified/board-eligible in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, or Geriatric Medicine
