Elk Grove is just south of Sacramento, and boasts of a charming old town, with roots dating back to the 1800s, and is the perfect community to live, work and play in! Elk Grove is a city of 179,000+ residents and has been recognized as the “best Sacramento hub” for young couples, and for its award-winning public schools. Our city is also conveniently located about 1.5 hours from the stunning Lake Tahoe area and Napa Wine Country, and about 2 hours from San Francisco and Silicon Valley.  

Is Northern California calling your name? Are you ready to join a visionary practice? If so, let’s talk!

This is an opportunity to join a community-based practice affiliated with Dignity Health. In many cases, providers will join an existing single-specialty or multi-specialty medical group (solo options are occasionally available). Physicians in an independent group tend to enjoy both the practice of medicine and the business side of health care. Some benefits of independent practice opportunities include:

• Exposure to and ability to impact all aspects of business operations associated with your practice
• Flexibility to adjust work/life balance to meet your personal and professional needs, since you’re the one running the practice
• Choice of joining an established practice or developing a new independent practice
