Family Medicine Physician – Outpatient – St. Luke’s University Health Network

St. Luke’s University Health Network, an award-winning, not-for-profit health system, is growing its primary care presence across eastern Pennsylvania and seeking board-certified or board-eligible Family Medicine physicians to join thriving, 100% outpatient practices in Bangor, Pottsville, and Kutztown.

Position Highlights

• 100% outpatient Family Medicine within a respected, physician-led not-for-profit health system.

• Balanced Monday–Friday schedule of 36 patient-facing hours plus 4 administrative hours per week, with one evening per week (until 7 p.m.) and flexibility to adjust hours around it.
