Solo / Independent Practice Family Practice: Outpatient Only Job in Birmingham, Alabama
This outpatient-only Family Practice opening in Birmingham, Alabama is offered as a solo or independent practice arrangement, one of several practice structures under which this role is available. In this model, you would own and run your own practice rather than being an employee — billing under your own name, building your own patient panel, and directing your own staffing, scheduling, and practice style. To help with the transition to independent practice, an income guarantee is part of the supporting financial structure, and the financial offering for this listing is noted as Open.
Additional support includes relocation assistance, a signing bonus, and loan assistance. There is no patient call and no emergency department call associated with this position.
This opportunity is open to physicians who are board certified or board eligible, trained through allopathic or osteopathic programs, and at any experience level from recently trained to very experienced. Because solo practice is only one of the structures offered for this role, you may also want to ask about how it compares with the group or employed options listed alongside it.
