Located in the scenic Appalachian Mountains, Johnson City and the surrounding Tri-Cities area offer an ideal blend of professional challenges and personal satisfaction. Serving a population of approximately 500,000, this region was recently recognized by Southern Living Magazine as the top destination for relocation in 2025. With its mild climate throughout the four seasons, plentiful outdoor activities, affordable housing, highly-rated schools, and convenient access to Asheville, NC, and Knoxville, TN, Johnson City provides an exceptional quality of life for both physicians and their families.

Note for International Medical Graduates (IMGs): Please be aware that recent legislation in Tennessee regarding the licensure of International Medical Graduates applies only to institutions with ACGME-accredited residency programs based in Tennessee. Since our residency programs are located in Virginia, we are unable to facilitate the pathways established by this specific Tennessee law. IMGs interested in these new state-specific opportunities are encouraged to focus their search on Tennessee-based academic institutions.
