Join True Health NY

True Health NY is seeking a dependable, clinically strong, and patient-centered Primary Care Physician to serve as the physician anchor for our Brooklyn clinic.

We welcome physicians trained in either Internal Medicine or Family Medicine who are committed to comprehensive adult outpatient care. The successful physician will build and maintain a stable patient panel, improve access to primary care, manage acute and chronic medical conditions, and provide consistent clinical leadership at the Brooklyn location.

This is a site-anchored position—not a four-office float role. The physician will have a defined Brooklyn schedule, dedicated clinical support, and access to an integrated team providing women’s health, OB/GYN, ultrasound, diagnostic, referral, and administrative services.

Position Highlights

• Full-time outpatient primary-care position

• Defined Brooklyn home office and recurring schedule

• No routine inpatient responsibilities or hospital call

• Established community patient demand

• Opportunity to build a long-term patient panel

• Dedicated medical-assistant and administrative support

• Access to women’s-health, OB/GYN, ultrasound, and diagnostic services

• eClinicalWorks electronic medical record

• Competitive guaranteed salary

• Written productivity and quality incentive

• Potential sign-on and relocation assistance

• Opportunity for future primary-care leadership

Clinical Responsibilities

The Primary Care Physician will:

• Provide comprehensive adult outpatient primary care.

• Conduct new-patient examinations, annual physicals, preventive visits, Medicare wellness visits, and follow-up care.

• Provide same-day and acute-care visits when clinically appropriate.

• Diagnose and manage common acute and chronic medical conditions.

• Manage conditions including hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, obesity, thyroid disease, asthma, COPD, cardiovascular risk factors, gastrointestinal concerns, musculoskeletal complaints, and other common adult health needs.

• Provide medication management and reconciliation.

• Perform preoperative medical evaluations and appropriate risk assessment within the physician’s scope.

• Provide evidence-based screening, immunization, and preventive-care counseling.

• Order and interpret laboratory, imaging, and diagnostic testing.

• Review and communicate clinically significant results promptly.

• Develop appropriate treatment and follow-up plans.

• Coordinate referrals and consultation with specialists.

• Maintain continuity for high-risk and medically complex patients.

• Identify conditions requiring emergency, hospital, or specialty escalation.

• Document referrals, follow-up instructions, and care plans clearly.

• Maintain an organized clinical inbox without a persistent unresolved backlog.

• Ensure appropriate handoff and cross-coverage when unavailable.

• Participate in peer review, quality improvement, patient-safety, and clinical-policy initiatives.
