Job Description

Last Update: 1/17/25

We are working with a geriatric-focused clinic in Southern California. We are committed to delivering high-quality care to our patients, with a focus on patient satisfaction, team collaboration, and continuous improvement. As we continue to expand, we are seeking an experienced and compassionate Primary Care Physician to join our team at our Compton and Greater Los Angeles locations.

Job Overview:

The role will involve a focus on providing high-quality care for a diverse patient population who are adult and geriatrics. The ideal candidate will have experience in value-based care, a passion for geriatric care, and a collaborative approach to leadership.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Participate in a call rotation, with a manageable burden, and receive additional compensation for on-call shifts.
  • Collaborate with social workers, MHCs, and other team members to ensure comprehensive care for patients.
  • Ensure a seamless patient enrollment process with appropriate assessments, care level development, and touchpoints with non-physician staff.
  • Report directly to the Medical Director and contribute to regional strategy and decision-making.

Qualifications:

  • Board-certified in Family Medicine, Geriatrics, or related field (preferred).
  • Knowledge of PACE or similar programs is a plus but not required.
  • Strong clinical competency with a focus on geriatric and complex care.
  • Cultural competence to effectively serve the Korean, Hispanic, and African American communities in the Los Angeles area.
  • Ability to collaborate with a team of healthcare professionals, including mid-level providers.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with a patient-centered approach.

Schedule & Hours:

  • Full-time, Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM
  • Group huddle at 8:15 AM daily
  • Call rotation: 1:3 call, full week of call (shared with 3 other practitioners)
  • Call is handled administratively and clinically, is not burdensome and calls after hours are rare.

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Base salary starting at $225,000.00
  • Performance-based cash bonus (up to 10% of salary, paid semi-annually).
  • $3,500 annual CME stipend + 1 full week of CME time off per year.
  • Additional benefits: Comprehensive health insurance, 401k, paid time off, and beeper fee compensation, potential sign-on bonus

Additional Details:

  • Location: The Compton site offers a secure, gated parking area, and is a safe, well-maintained facility. The Greater Los Angeles site is situated in a desirable area just minutes from downtown LA, offering a vibrant and dynamic work environment.
  • Patient Panel: Both locations are growing, with current patient panels ranging from 60-65 patients per location. The patient population is diverse, and we are looking for a leader who is culturally competent and able to work with a wide range of individuals from different backgrounds.
  • Administrative & Clinical Responsibilities: The role is divided equally between clinical patient care (seeing participants and providing follow-up) and administrative duties (managing team and operations). The Medical Director will oversee 1 Nurse Practitioner and 1 RN Clinic Supervisor.

  • Join a well-established organization with a strong mission to serve the community.
  • Competitive salary and benefits package, including performance-based incentives.
