Job Description
Reclaim the Practice of Your Dreams
What if you could return to the heart of medicine- the kind of practice where you know your patients by name, have time to listen, and play a meaningful role in their long-term health?
This rare opportunity allows you to step into an established, thriving MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice in Gilroy, CA. You won’t just be inheriting a patient panel; you’ll be carrying forward a trusted legacy while shaping the future of care with the freedom, resources, and balance you’ve always wanted.
What Makes This Different
- A Practice to Call Your Own – Acquire a well-established practice with a loyal patient base that’s built on years of trust.
- Time to Truly Care – See just 8-10 patients per day, with longer appointments designed for personal preventive care.
- Preventive, Personalized Medicine – Focus on wellness, prevention, and meaningful relationships rather than volume-based care.
- Work-Life Balance – A manageable schedule that respects both your patients’ health and your own well-being.
- Autonomy with Support – Lead independently while tapping into the strength and scale of MDVIP’s national physician network.
What You Bring
- Board certification in Internal Medicine or Family Medicine
- Active medical license (or eligibility to obtain)
