Your clinical days will be structured yet adaptable, with patient care beginning around 8:30 a.m. and typically concluding by 4:00 p.m. Most physicians choose to take Friday afternoons off, providing built-in time for personal balance. You’ll begin your practice with approximately 10 patients per day, scaling to 20 as your panel grows—often within just six months, as seen with other recent hires. Clinic appointments are generally 15 minutes each, with longer slots for new visits.
The clinical spectrum is broad, with approximately 20% of cases being high-risk, and a community C-section rate that exceeds national averages—providing exposure to both complex and routine OB scenarios. A laborist program ensures that after-hours triage and admissions are covered, minimizing overnight disruptions. On-call duties are structured to maximize predictability, with a rotation of 1:4 and 2–3 calls per week, with one full week off per month.
