About The Purcell Clinic

The Purcell Clinic has been the trusted leader in pediatric care for our region since 1961, proudly serving families across Laurinburg and Rockingham, North Carolina. Our team has built deep, lasting relationships in the community while delivering high-quality, compassionate care in a true outpatient setting.

Our providers value continuity of care and meaningful relationships with patients and families. You'll be joining a collaborative, down-to-earth environment with longstanding clinicians and an experienced support staff, so you can stay focused on what matters most: caring for kids.

Laurinburg and Rockingham offer the comfort and pace of close-knit, family-friendly communities with surprising access to outdoor recreation, history, and culture.

Laurinburg is home to St. Andrews University, the annual Scotland County Highland Games, and beautiful tree-lined neighborhoods, while Rockingham offers the Hitchcock Creek Blue Trail, Discovery Place Kids, and the historic Rockingham Speedway.

Both communities sit within easy reach of some of the most attractive destinations in the Carolinas, including Pinehurst's world-class golf, Fayetteville, the Sandhills state parks, and Charlotte and Raleigh both within about an hour and a half drive. The North Carolina coast is also a comfortable day trip away.

Position Overview

We are seeking a full-time Pediatrician to step into a well-established role serving a strong, loyal patient base. This is a great opportunity to join a practice that is deeply rooted in the community and known for its excellent reputation.

The position offers a predictable outpatient schedule split between our Laurinburg and Rockingham offices, with a light shared call rotation and no hospital responsibilities. You'll have the ability to focus on delivering excellent care while maintaining a strong work-life balance.

We're looking for a physician who is compassionate, collaborative, and committed to relationship-driven pediatrics.

What You'll Do

  • Provide comprehensive outpatient pediatric care to infants, children, and adolescents
  • Manage a consistent patient panel and build long-term relationships with families
  • Collaborate closely with fellow pediatricians, APPs, and clinical staff
  • Participate in a light, rotating call and weekend schedule
  • Maintain accurate and timely documentation using our practice EMR
  • Contribute to a positive, team-oriented culture

Requirements

What We're Looking For

  • MD or DO, Board Certified or Board Eligible in Pediatrics
  • Active North Carolina license or ability to obtain
  • Strong clinical skills and a patient-centered approach
  • Excellent communication skills and a team-first mindset
  • Spanish language skills are a plus
  • Interest in building a long-term role within the community

Compensation & Benefits

  • Competitive base salary, commensurate with experience
  • Productivity and incentive bonus opportunities
  • Malpractice coverage provided
  • CME allowance and dedicated CME time
  • Health, dental, vision, and 401(k) benefits available
  • Generous paid time off per practice policy
  • Practice qualifies for federal and state level loan repayment program eligibility (NHSC and ORH)

Why This Role Stands Out

  • Established, busy patient panel with consistent demand
  • 100% outpatient, no hospital coverage
  • Predictable schedule that supports work-life balance
  • Supportive, physician-led team with strong retention and a collaborative culture
  • Welcoming small-town communities with easy access to Pinehurst, Charlotte, Raleigh, Fayetteville, and the NC coast
  • Opportunity to build meaningful, long-term patient relationships
