Job Description

Oak Street Health is seeking a compassionate and mission-driven Primary Care Physician to join our Healthcare & Medical Services team. As a member of our network of primary care centers serving adults on Medicare, you will play a central role in delivering personalized, high-quality care to patients in underserved communities. You will provide comprehensive primary care, including preventive services, chronic disease management, acute care, and care coordination, with a strong emphasis on building long-term, trusting relationships with your patients. In this role, you will lead a multidisciplinary care team that may include nurse practitioners, medical assistants, care managers, social workers, and other clinical staff. Working in a collaborative, patient-centered environment, you will develop and implement individualized care plans, perform thorough assessments, interpret diagnostic tests, and use evidence-based guidelines to manage a wide range of medical conditions. You will focus on proactive, preventative care that reduces avoidable hospitalizations, improves health outcomes, and enhances quality of life for our patients. You will utilize electronic health records and population health tools to track outcomes, identify care gaps, and manage panels of patients. Regular responsibilities include conducting in-person and, when appropriate, virtual visits; ordering and reviewing labs, imaging, and referrals; providing clear patient education; and coordinating with specialists, hospitals, and community resources. You will be expected to participate in quality improvement initiatives, contribute to clinical protocols, and collaborate with colleagues to continually enhance care delivery. Oak Street Health’s culture is patient-centered, inclusive, and collaborative. As a Primary Care Physician, you will be encouraged to bring forward ideas, adopt innovative care models, and participate in data-driven performance improvement. You will work in a supportive environment that values teamwork, open communication, and respect for diverse backgrounds and perspectives. The organization is committed to providing the resources, staffing, and tools you need to practice medicine the way it should be practiced: focused on time with patients and thoughtful, preventative care rather than volume. This position offers a meaningful opportunity to improve access to high-quality healthcare for older adults in underserved neighborhoods. You will have the chance to develop deep relationships with your patients, understand the social determinants that affect their health, and work with your team to address barriers to care. Oak Street Health supports ongoing professional development through mentorship, continuing medical education opportunities, and pathways for leadership within the organization. The ideal candidate is board certified or board eligible in Internal Medicine or Family Medicine, committed to health equity, comfortable working with complex patients, and enthusiastic about team-based, value-driven care. You should be adept at managing multiple chronic conditions, using clinical data to guide decisions, and communicating clearly and compassionately with patients and caregivers. A strong alignment with Oak Street Health’s mission of rebuilding healthcare for Medicare patients in underserved communities is essential. This is a full-time, primarily on-site clinical role in a modern primary care center, with potential for limited hybrid or telehealth work depending on organizational needs and patient demand. Competitive compensation is offered, along with a comprehensive benefits package that typically includes medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and retirement plan options. By joining Oak Street Health as a Primary Care Physician, you will have the opportunity to grow professionally while making a lasting, positive impact on community health.
