Meaningful Medicine with Community Impact

Your clinical work as a Family Medicine physician at Cobre Valley Regional Medical Center will be both dynamic and deeply rewarding. Serving a diverse and loyal patient base, you will have the chance to build lasting relationships with individuals and families across generations. With a typical daily volume of 20–25 patients, your practice will be busy—but manageable—supported by strong infrastructure and a collaborative care team.

The practice environment combines professional autonomy with comprehensive support. Each physician is paired with a dedicated Medical Assistant, and mid-level providers manage their own panels—enhancing efficiency and patient access without increasing your call burden. The electronic medical record (EMR) system allows for seamless documentation and patient care coordination across CVRMC’s seven clinical sites.

The clinical scope includes outpatient continuity care, pediatric and neonatal call (without general inpatient responsibilities), and optional involvement with an upcoming residency program. Most pediatric admissions are stabilized and transferred, minimizing inpatient exposure. A brand-new multi-specialty clinic is nearing completion, bringing lab, X-ray, physical therapy, and pharmacy services under one roof for enhanced care delivery.
