Position Summary
We are seeking a Licensed Primary Care Physician (Family Medicine, BC/BE) to provide exceptional outpatient care while supporting clinical leadership initiatives. This role combines hands-on patient care with clinical supervision, quality improvement, and leadership responsibilities.
Key Responsibilities

- Assist the CMO in monitoring clinical performance metrics (HEDIS, STAR, UDS, etc.) via chart audits and reports.
- Evaluate and treat patients at clinic sites, including acute, chronic, and preventive care.
- Perform in-office procedures such as incision and drainage, arthrocentesis, nail removal, skin biopsy, and cryotherapy.
- Maintain productivity standards of 22 patients per day.
- Ensure accurate, thorough, and timely documentation; lock progress notes within 48 hours.
- Review and sign off on lab results, diagnostic reports, and consult notes promptly.
- Initiate and manage specialist referrals and e-consults, providing whole-person care.
- Serve as primary care provider for a patient panel within a collaborative care team.
- Clinically supervise Advanced Practice Providers (APPs), including new provider chart reviews and ongoing supervision.

- Periodically work occasional Sunday shifts to support operational needs.
Qualifications & Requirements
- Licensed to practice medicine in California with an active DEA license.
