Solo / Independent Practice Family Practice (w/o OB) Job in Staunton, Virginia
This Family Practice (w/o OB) position in Staunton, Virginia is offered as a solo/independent practice arrangement, one of several practice structures available for this role. In this model, you would own and run your own practice rather than being employed — billing under your own name, building your own patient panel, and directing staffing, scheduling, and practice style. The organization's role is typically to support your start-up, often through an income guarantee, while you carry the day-to-day business and administrative responsibilities that come with ownership.
Financially, this listing includes an income guarantee as part of its support structure, and the financial offering for this position is listed in the $275,000–$299,999 range. There is no patient call and no emergency department call associated with this role.
Candidates may be board certified or board eligible, and the practice is open to physicians currently in training, recently trained, or experienced. This opportunity is located in a community of 10,000–24,999 residents. Because this role is also offered under group and employed structures, you may wish to compare how those arrangements differ from the independent practice model described here.
