Job Description
An established, MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice in Carmel, Indiana, is seeking an Internal Medicine or Family Medicine physician. The practice is 15 minutes north of Indianapolis and has a loyal, longstanding member base.
This isn't a traditional high-volume primary care job. You'll join an established practice with an existing member panel, practicing the MDVIP personalized-care model as an employed physician with Ascension Medical Group.
Ascension, a national nonprofit Catholic health system, handles the business and administrative side of the practice, so your time goes to medicine, not overhead.

Panels are intentionally small, capped at 300–600 members, compared with the thousands in a traditional practice.
Appointments run 30 to 60 minutes for thorough wellness exams and acute care visits.
- Insurance continues to be billed for medically necessary care beyond the wellness program.
What This Offers
Deep, ongoing relationships with a smaller member base and real time per visit Same- or next-day appointments for members, unrushed and on schedule A membership-based practice that focuses on proactive health management, not reactive "sick care"
