Position Details

Practice Scope & Patient Care

We provide outpatient primary care exclusively for adult patients 18 years and older, managing common chronic illnesses and acute care with a focus on preventive medicine. Our patient population is primarily middle-aged adults, and we accept most commercial insurance plans as well as Medicare. Patient appointments are scheduled at a manageable pace of approximately 2 new patients or 3 established patients per hour. We do not provide pediatric care, major psychiatric management, or chronic pain management services. The Emory Healthcare Network manages our payer credentialing, streamlining administrative processes.

If the standard schedule options don't meet your needs, we will try to accommodate your preferences within reason.

Work Environment & Support

Our comfortable, well-appointed office provides an excellent working environment. You'll work under the supervision of board-certified primary care physicians who provide collaborative support and consultation. Registered Nurses manage the triage process, handle prior authorizations, and coordinate care, allowing you to focus on patient care. The practice invests in comprehensive marketing to help build patient panels and maintain steady patient flow.

Technology & Diagnostics

We stay up-to-date with the latest technology, utilizing eClinicalWorks EMR with integrated e-prescribing, patient portal for communication of results, Dragon Medical One dictation, and Sunoh AI medical scribe technology to minimize documentation burden.
