Description

Primary Care Physician / Family Medicine Physicians | Just 8 Patients per Day | Patient Panel <1,000 | Organization Expansion Offers Unheard of Work/Life Balance + Flexibility – Oklahoma City, OK, and Tulsa, OK

About the Opportunity


Are you a Family Medicine physician who wants to practice relationship-driven, meaningful medicine, without the pressure of high-volume scheduling, packed daily templates, or endless inbox messages? Our rapidly growing Direct Primary Care (DPC) organization features nearly one dozen locations spread throughout the OKC and Tulsa metros, and we are seeking mission-driven physicians who want to deliver truly personal, accessible care. In this membership-based model, patients pay a low monthly fee and receive same-or next-day access!

Physicians consistently describe this role as fulfilling, balanced, relational, and a return to “old-school medicine with a small-town feel." This model features eight one-hour patient appointment blocks per day, allowing you to practice the way medicine was meant to be practiced. Zero insurance billing. Zero bureaucracy. Only an incredible culture focused on providing the best patient care and outcomes possible!

What Makes This Practice Different

• One-hour patient visits: Time to focus deeply on prevention, lifestyle, education, and relationship-building.
• Smaller patient panels: Approximately 850 patients when fully built.
• An *actual* work/life balance: Physicians report being home for dinner with the family every single day.
• Direct patient communication: Only a handful of patient messages per day, not 60 – 80 found in a traditional PC setting.
• Collaborative culture: All physicians and APPs communicate through an active, supportive “group chat” for quick clinical collaboration.
• Exceptionally low turnover: No physicians have resigned from the organization in nearly 10 years!
• Leadership that listens: Structured monthly and quarterly meetings, accessible executives, and ongoing investment in technology and operations.
• Call: Light call for your own small panel; typically, a dozen or so messages per day, not traditional call coverage

Why This Model Works
Direct Primary Care allows physicians to:

• Limit panel sizes
• Offer extraordinary access
• Build real relationships
• Avoid insurance constraints
• Spend time on preventative and lifestyle medicine
• Enjoy work/life balance without sacrificing patient care

Physicians commonly report improved health, lower stress, renewed passion for medicine, and a career they plan to stay in until retirement.

What Physicians Love About This Role
Direct Primary Care physicians repeatedly describe:

• Deep, meaningful provider-patient relationships
• Significantly lower stress and burnout
• Ability to “practice medicine the right way”
• Time to focus on prevention and holistic care
• Flexibility to handle life’s curveballs (kids’ appointments, quick errands, etc.)
• Patients who are engaged, loyal, and appreciative of the model
• Opportunities to go above and beyond (e.g., one physician who recently met with her diabetic patient to shop for healthy groceries/identify healthier food choices – true story!)

Who Will Thrive Here
Ideal candidates are:

• Relationship-driven, grounded, and compassionate
• Interested in autonomy with accountability
• Comfortable managing a smaller panel deeply, not high patient volume
• Entrepreneurial-minded and excited about a growing practice model
• Flexible, collaborative, and comfortable making independent decisions
• Motivated to help build and grow a patient panel
• Focused on purpose, not on productivity quotas

This environment is not ideal for someone seeking minimal work or a passive schedule. Physicians work hard – just differently – with time and purpose behind each encounter.

Position Highlights

• Compensation: Guaranteed base plus benefits, including health insurance, retirement, and all major benefits, beginning the first of the month following hire
• Schedule: Full-time clinic role with flexibility built into the model
• Support Staff: Each physician has one dedicated nurse + strong front office support
• Procedures: Perform the procedures you feel comfortable with!
• Virtual Care: Telehealth available when clinically appropriate
• Credentialing: Lightning fast, with no insurance credentialing required!
• Onboarding: Approximately one week
