Job Description
Escape the Grind: Independent Contractor Family Medicine, Zero Hassle
Fort Worth, TX | Work As Little or As Much As You Like
Tired of prior auths, prescription refills, and after-hours call? This role hands you a clean slate: walk in, evaluate, walk out. No charting marathons, no treatment plans, no patients calling you at 9pm.
The IMA Group is seeking a Family Medicine Physician (MD/DO) for a disability evaluation role as an independent contractor — take on as many or as few evaluation days as fit your life, with a built-in support team so you can focus purely on the clinical work.
Your Day-to-day
- Perform focused physical exams and medical evaluations
- Review charts, labs, and diagnostic records
- Document findings through a streamlined digital platform
- See a genuinely varied caseload — kids to seniors
What Makes This Different
- Total scheduling control — take on as much or as little volume as you want, no minimum commitment
- No nights, no weekends, no on-call, ever
- No prescribing, no treatment plans, no follow-ups — evaluate and move on
- Administrative support included — less paperwork burden on you
- Low-stress pace — built for physicians who want clinical work without clinical chaos
What You Bring
- Active, unrestricted MD/DO license
- Family Medicine background preferred
- Comfort evaluating patients across all ages
- Sharp assessment and documentation instincts
Who This Is Perfect For
- Physicians easing toward retirement who still want to practice
- Parents or caregivers needing a schedule that flexes around them
- Anyone burned out on treatment-heavy primary care
- Physicians wanting a second income stream without a second full workload
If "flexible" usually means "still on call," this isn't that. Set your own volume, clear scope, real balance — apply today.
