Position Overview

Understanding the Role

A Unique Role in a Premier Mountain Resort Community

Step into a rare Family Medicine opportunity that blends traditional primary care with the dynamic pace of urgent care. This is not the standard family medicine clinic you may be accustomed to—your days will balance scheduled visits with the variety of caring for both year-round residents and seasonal visitors in a resort town where patient needs change with the seasons. From acute ski injuries to chronic disease management, your work here will feel purposeful, diverse, and deeply rewarding.

Serving a Diverse and Growing Population

Big Sky’s year-round population of 3,500 expands to nearly 30,000 during ski season, creating a unique and vital need for accessible, consistent family medicine. You’ll inherit an established panel of approximately 1,100 patients while also caring for seasonal workers and tourists. With rotating specialists and the backing of Bozeman Health’s integrated system, you’ll enjoy both the resources of a large network and the independence of a close-knit community clinic.

Lifestyle-Oriented Schedule

This opportunity is designed for physicians who value both professional fulfillment and lifestyle balance. You’ll practice on a 0.9 FTE schedule—typically four nine-hour days (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday)—leaving you with dependable three-day weekends to enjoy the unmatched outdoor lifestyle of Big Sky. Patient volumes average 16–20 per day in peak season and 12–16 in the quieter months, ensuring time to connect meaningfully with patients without the rushed pace of many outpatient settings.

  • Clinic-based Family Medicine with urgent care–style variety
  • Four-day workweek (~36 hours/week)
  • Patient volumes: 16–20/day in season; 12–16/day off-season
  • Call: ~2 weeks per year, phone-only, shared with Bozeman colleagues
  • Epic EMR with full systemwide integration
  • Rotating specialists and strong support from Bozeman Health
  • Optional: one day every other week serving patients in West Yellowstone
  • Replacement hire with an established patient panel

This is the ideal position for a physician seeking meaningful medicine without sacrificing lifestyle—where every day offers variety and impact, supported by a strong health system, in one of the nation’s most desirable outdoor destinations.
