Understanding the Role

Practice With Purpose in a Thriving Rural Health System

As you step into your role at Perry County Memorial Hospital, you'll experience the perfect balance of clinical autonomy and collaborative support that defines truly rewarding rural medicine. You'll join a forward-thinking healthcare team where primary care physicians are the cornerstone of community health, practicing comprehensive medicine with the backing of a progressive administration that values physician input and wellbeing.

This opportunity places you within a high-functioning healthcare system where your voice matters and your impact is immediately felt. Unlike metropolitan settings where primary care can feel like an assembly line, here you'll build meaningful relationships with patients while enjoying the professional satisfaction of practicing full-spectrum medicine. You'll experience a patient population that genuinely needs your expertise in a community that deeply values healthcare professionals.

  • Role designed for physicians seeking clinical autonomy with the opportunity to shape your practice around your interests and preferred work-life balance
  • Growing practice need due to an aging medical community and multiple recent provider departures creating immediate demand
  • Outpatient primary care focus with a productivity model that rewards physicians who want to build robust practices
  • Board Certification in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine required with opportunity for physicians at any career stage
  • Flexibility to pursue special interests whether in sports medicine, procedures, geriatrics, or other areas of passion
  • Four-day work week standard for full-time physicians, reflecting the hospital's commitment to work-life balance
  • No mandatory hospital call required allowing you to truly disconnect during personal time
  • Direct physician involvement in administrative decisions through regular consultation and an expanding CMO position

Your practice will be based primarily at the 13th Street Clinic, a recently remodeled facility equipped with modern amenities and sufficient exam rooms to support efficient patient flow. As the community faces an acute shortage of primary care providers due to retirements and transitions, you'll have the opportunity to build a thriving practice while making a substantial impact on community health outcomes.
