Primary Care Physician, Family or Internal Medicine

Description

Practice Primary Care with Purpose
Health by Design | New Primary Care Clinic
Corpus Christi, Texas

At Health by Design, we're redefining primary care through a value-based care model -one that prioritizes outcomes over volume, relationships over transactions, and prevention over reaction. Our clinics are designed to give providers the time, tools, and support needed to deliver truly meaningful care.

We don't measure success by RVUs-we measure it by healthier patients, stronger relationships, and sustainable care. Through longer visits, smaller patient panels, and an integrated care team, you'll be empowered to focus on whole-person health, lifestyle medicine, and long-term outcomes.

Our new clinic, in partnership with Driscoll Children's Hospital in Corpus Christi, Texas will serve hospital employees and their adult dependents "Healthcare Professionals taking care of Healthcare Professionals." We are seeking Family or Internal Medicine Physicians who are passionate about practicing medicine with purpose.

If you're looking for a role where you can slow down, build meaningful patient relationships, and practice medicine the way it was meant to be practiced-this may be the perfect opportunity.

Schedule & Flexibility

Clinic hours are:

• Monday, Wednesday, Friday: 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM
• Tuesday, Thursday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

Shifts will always fall within these hours-no weekends, no major holidays, no call, and no after-hours charting.

We are ideally seeking a provider interested in working 44 hours per week. However, we offer flexible staffing options, including:

• A job-share model with two providers splitting 20 and 24 hours per week, or
• A 36-hour, 4-day provider paired with an additional provider working 8 hours (1 day) per week
