About Town Square Health

Town Square Health is a value-based, multi-specialty, provider-owned practice with a bold vision: to create the gold standard for how we experience healthcare in the United States. Our model was built by David Buchanan, prior Oak Street Health executive and practicing internal medicine physician with 25 years of experience in value-based care serving Medicare and Medicaid patients.

Our breakthrough care model for Medicare patients combines relationship-driven primary care and specialty care into simultaneous visits. Each patient is supported by a dedicated Medical Assistant - a concierge partner who builds long-term trust, eases caregiver burden, and leverages AI-enabled workflows to improve chronic disease outcomes.

The Opportunity

Town Square Health is hiring a Medical Director (Physician (MD/DO)) in the Rochester area to serve as both a clinical leader and a practicing provider in our Medicare-focused, value-based care environment. This is a unique opportunity to help launch and grow our first market - combining hands-on patient care with meaningful leadership responsibilities.

As Medical Director, you will lead our provider team, serve as a key liaison to central clinical leadership, and play a pivotal role in building the relationships and clinical culture that will define Town Square Health's presence in the Rochester community. You'll also help develop our provider pipeline by identifying and engaging clinical talent in the local market.

This is a clinic-based role with the time, team support, and resources to practice comprehensive medicine: patient panels smaller than the national average, 20-40 minute visit lengths based on patient needs, and a team-based care model with two Medical Assistants paired to each provider.
