Job at a glance
Job description
Schertz / Northeast San Antonio, Texas
Less Volume. More Purpose. A Better Way to Practice Medicine.
Remember when you had time to really get to know your patients, listen to their concerns, and help them make meaningful improvements in their health? What if you could get back to practicing medicine that way?
At Health by Design, we've created a different kind of primary care practice. Our value-based care model eliminates fee-for-service medicine, RVUs, and the pressure of high-volume patient schedules. Instead, we give physicians the time, resources, and support to focus on what matters most: their patients.
We're looking for a Family or Internal Medicine Physician to join our team at the Schertz Wellness Center in the Northeast San Antonio / Schertz area.
Imagine a Practice Where You Have Time to Be a Physician
Forget the pressure of seeing 25–30 patients a day. Our physicians typically see just 8–14 patients daily, with appointment times that allow for meaningful conversations, thorough evaluations, and thoughtful treatment plans.
Here's what makes our model different:
- 30- and 60-minute patient appointments
- Smaller patient panels
- An average of just 8–14 patients per day
- Dedicated care coordination and administrative time
- No RVUs or productivity-driven patient quotas
- No after-hours charting
- An opportunity to focus on prevention, wellness, and long-term patient outcomes
A Unique Patient Population & A Collaborative Team
At the Schertz Wellness Center, you'll care for an all-adult patient population consisting of retired San Antonio firefighters, police officers, and their dependents. This is a distinctive patient population, and a rewarding opportunity to care for the men and women who have spent their careers serving our community.
You'll provide comprehensive primary care while working alongside an experienced interdisciplinary team, including your own Registered Nurse in the clinic.
Our approach goes beyond treating illness. You'll have the opportunity to incorporate:
- Preventive and lifestyle medicine
- Chronic disease management
- Nutrition and wellness education
- Personalized treatment planning
- Specialty coordination and collaborative care
- Physicians with an interest or additional training in Sports Medicine will also have opportunities to apply that knowledge in caring for our patient population.
A Small Organization Where You Truly Matter
We're a close-knit organization of approximately 160 team members, and we like it that way.
At Health by Design, you're not just another employee or a number. You're part of a team where people know one another, relationships matter, and individual contributions make a difference.
We value collaboration, support one another, and share a common purpose: helping people live healthier, more fulfilling lives.
Work-Life Balance That Actually Means Something
We believe physicians should have fulfilling careers AND time to enjoy life outside of work.
Your schedule will include:
- Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
- Dedicated lunch hour from 12:00–1:00 p.m. (clinic closed)
- No evenings
- No weekends
- No call
- No after-hours charting
You can leave the clinic at the end of the day knowing your work is done. We offer a competitive compensation and bonus package, full benefits package, generous PTO, paid holidays, reimbursement for license and DEA, $2,000 a year CME and MORE!
Requirements
- MD or DO from an accredited medical school
- Board Certified or Board Eligible in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine
- Current, unrestricted Texas medical license
- Current BLS certification
