Our organization is seeking to welcome a Primary Care Physician to our team at the Oceanside Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC).

The CBOC functions under a Patient Aligned Care Team Model. In collaboration with a dedicated team that includes a Primary Care Provider (PCP), Registered Nurse (RN), Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), and an administrator, the PCP will manage a patient panel of up to 1,260 individuals.

Typical conditions treated include diabetes, hypertension, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, degenerative arthritis, depression, congestive heart failure, and chronic pain.

The physician will be responsible for evaluating, diagnosing, treating, and consulting with non-surgical adult patients across all age groups, addressing a diverse range of diseases, injuries, and disorders that are not life-threatening.

Collaboration with mid-level providers, such as nurse practitioners, is expected, as well as working alongside various specialties (and subspecialties) both within and outside the VA system to effectively manage or co-manage patient health. Select mental health and subspecialty services are available on-site, while additional medical and surgical subspecialty services can be accessed through consultations with the San Diego VA Health Care System or the community.
