Job Description

We are currently seeking a full-time Medical Director and Attending Physician to serve local skilled nursing facilities within a close-knit, mission-driven care community.

At Theoria Medical, relationships and continuity define great care. You'll build lasting trust with residents over time — not just treating patients, but getting to know them, the way primary care was meant to work.

We pair that consistency with real flexibility: autonomy over your schedule, intuitive technology, and a collaborative clinical team behind you — so you can spend your time on what matters most, the patient in front of you.

Build a career with impact, on a schedule that works for you.
