About The Position

We are a newly-established primary care practice with a mission of improving lives and communities through socially-supported care for older adults. Our unique model allows our clinicians to treat the whole patient, and not just their clinical needs. We do this by having a dedicated care team that supports our clinicians by addressing our patients’ social determinants of health and providing the highest quality of service possible. The Primary Care Provider will guide our patients to build their best lives according to their goals. They do this by providing a full spectrum of care while utilizing state-of-the-art technology and establishing trusted longitudinal care in our clinics and via telehealth. Working with other members of the care team, our "person-first" approach strives to create both individual and community wellness. We are unable to consider new graduates for this role at this time.
