The Family Medicine position at Sentara Medical Group offers an ideal combination of professional growth and personal well-being. Located in Southern Virginia, this role is situated in a 100% outpatient rural health clinic that serves a diverse patient population. Physicians will provide care to patients of all ages, though 90% of the clinic's patients are adults, giving physicians the opportunity to engage in comprehensive family medicine while still maintaining a focus on adult care.
One of the most appealing aspects of this position is the 4-day workweek, which comprises 36 patient contact hours. This schedule provides the flexibility needed to maintain a healthy balance between work and personal life, making it highly attractive to physicians seeking time for family, hobbies, or relaxation. Furthermore, the role comes with no on-call duties, allowing physicians to fully enjoy their evenings and weekends without any professional interruptions. This setup is especially beneficial for physicians looking to escape the demands of round-the-clock responsibilities.
In terms of leadership, the physician will report directly to CEO Bryan Zwoyer, creating a clear and supportive chain of command. This relationship ensures that the physician has direct access to the clinic's top leadership for any strategic or operational concerns, fostering a cohesive and aligned working environment. The clinic itself is equipped with on-site lab services and advanced X-ray facilities that offer same-day readings, significantly enhancing the efficiency of patient care and minimizing delays in diagnostics.
The position is perfect for those who value professional autonomy in a collegial and supportive setting, while also appreciating the work-life balance afforded by a four-day work schedule with no on-call commitments.
