Clinical Psychology — Physician Career Context
This Clinical Psychology position at PROTOCALL SERVICES is open to physician candidates.
Physicians (MD/DO) are in high demand across healthcare settings, with growing interest in positions that offer sustainable schedules and reduced administrative burden.
Nationally, Clinical Psychology professionals earn a median annual salary of approximately $95k, with the typical range spanning $70k to $140k depending on experience, location, and practice setting.
Remote physician positions in Clinical Psychology have grown significantly in recent years, offering clinicians the ability to maintain a full patient panel without geographic constraints or commute-related burnout.
Compensation Analysis
This position also offers production-based compensation: $32000 per hourly. Production bonuses can significantly increase total earnings above the stated base salary range.
Location & Logistics
This is a fully remote physician position. Remote clinicians can practice from any state where they hold an active license, eliminating commute time and offering maximum schedule flexibility. Many remote healthcare positions also allow providers to establish a more sustainable long-term practice pattern.

Why This Position Stands Out
- No on-call requirements — clinicians are completely off-duty after hours
