Solo / Independent Practice Internal Medicine: General Job in Los Angeles, California
This Internal Medicine: General position in Los Angeles is offered as a solo/independent practice opportunity, one of several arrangements available for this role. In this structure, you would own and operate 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. Consistent with this option, an income guarantee is listed among the financial structures available to help support your start-up. The financial offering for this listing is noted as Open.
The role carries no patient call and no emergency department call responsibilities. This same position is also listed under other arrangements — including single-specialty group, multi-specialty group, admin/medical director, and non-clinical case management — so if independent ownership isn't the right fit, related versions of this opportunity may be available.
Candidates considered include those who are Board Certified or Board Eligible, trained as MD or DO, and either AMG or FMG, with US Citizen or Green Card work status. Physicians at any career stage — recently trained, experienced, or very experienced — are eligible, and the position is based in a community sized between 100,000 and 500,000+ residents.
