Build a Career With Heart in the Thriving Medical Hub of Augusta, Georgia
Overview
There are career moves, and then there are life-defining decisions. The kind where you wake up one morning and realize that the work you do, the people you serve, and the place you call home are all finally in alignment. That's the kind of opportunity waiting for you in Augusta, Georgia — a city that carries the warmth of the Deep South, the intellectual energy of a major medical community, and a lifestyle that quietly earns your loyalty every single day.
We are actively seeking a board-certified Family Medicine Physician (MD or DO) to become an integral part of a forward-thinking, patient-centered primary care practice. This is not a revolving-door clinic or a production-first environment. This is a place where physicians are empowered to know their patients by name, to think proactively rather than reactively, and to practice the kind of medicine that drew them to this field in the first place. From cradle to golden years, you will guide individuals and families through the full arc of their health — and that kind of continuity means something here.
If you are a clinician who thrives on genuine connection, values collaborative teamwork, and wants a practice environment that honors your time inside and outside the clinic, Augusta is ready to welcome you home.

- Work hand-in-hand with care coordinators, behavioral health clinicians, and specialist networks to ensure seamless, integrated care delivery.
- Actively contribute to quality improvement efforts designed to elevate both patient outcomes and clinical workflows.
- Maintain complete, accurate, and timely documentation within the electronic medical records system.
- Offer flexible care delivery through both in-person visits and telehealth platforms to meet patients wherever they are.

- MD or DO degree from an accredited and recognized medical school.
- Successful completion of an accredited Family Medicine residency program.
Certifications
- Board Certification in Family Medicine (ABFM or AOBFP).
- Active Georgia medical license or full eligibility to obtain one prior to start.
- BLS and ACLS certifications preferred.
Skills and Experience
- Refined clinical and diagnostic abilities with a genuine commitment to preventive and longitudinal care.
- Familiarity with value-based care frameworks and a drive to pursue meaningful, measurable improvement.
- Outstanding communication skills and a naturally collaborative approach to working with multidisciplinary teams.
- Proficiency with electronic health record platforms and telehealth technology.
- A sincere passion for delivering equitable, culturally sensitive care to a diverse patient community.
Benefits
- Competitive base salary complemented by productivity bonuses and a sign-on incentive.
- Comprehensive health, dental, and vision coverage.
- Generous paid time off and a thoughtfully designed holiday calendar.
- CME allowance with dedicated paid CME days to support your professional development.
- 401(k) retirement plan with employer matching contributions.
- A physician-led, supportive culture that champions your growth and overall well-being.
