Family Medicine — Physician Career Context

This Family Medicine position at Gundersen Health System 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, Family Medicine professionals earn a median annual salary of approximately $265k, with the typical range spanning $200k to $340k depending on experience, location, and practice setting.

Remote physician positions in Family Medicine 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 employer qualifies for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF). Eligible clinicians can have their remaining federal student loan balance forgiven after 120 qualifying monthly payments (10 years). For physicians and advanced practice providers carrying significant educational debt, PSLF eligibility can represent hundreds of thousands of dollars in long-term financial benefit.
