Dream Job: Primary Care Physician | Live & Work in Beautiful Santa Cruz, CA

Ready to practice medicine the way it’s meant to be—patient-focused, balanced, and deeply rewarding? This is your chance to join a thriving, collegial medical group along the stunning California coast in Santa Cruz County . With opportunities in Capitola, Santa Cruz, and Soquel, you’ll find not just a job—but a lifestyle.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:

Imagine finishing your clinic day and heading straight to the beach, enjoying dinner with family, or taking long weekends to recharge. Here, your schedule is designed with your life in mind—not the other way around.

You’ll step into a supportive, physician-first environment where:

• You can practice medicine your way with autonomy and minimal bureaucracy
• You’re paired with a dedicated mentor from day one
• Collaboration isn’t just encouraged—it’s part of the culture
• Administrative burdens are lifted so you can focus on what matters most: your patients
• Flexibility allows you to shape your practice around your strengths and interests

What You’ll Do:

• Deliver high-quality, patient-centered care to a diverse and engaged community
• Build meaningful, long-term relationships with your patients
• Work alongside a team of genuinely supportive, down-to-earth physicians

Compensation That Matches the Lifestyle:

• $300,000+ guaranteed salary + productivity incentives
• ✍️ Sign-on bonus up to $125,000
• Relocation assistance up to $20,000
• Up to $30,000 annual quality bonus
• Student loan repayment + PSLF-eligible employer
• Annual CME allowance
• 401(k) with employer match
• Comprehensive health benefits for you and your family

What You Bring:

• MD or DO, Board-Certified or Board-Eligible in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine
• Active California license (or ability to obtain)
• DEA certification
• Spanish proficiency is a plus
• A genuine commitment to patient-centered, compassionate care

This isn’t just another primary care role. It’s an opportunity to build a career you love in a place people vacation to.
