Big Rapids Family Medicine is looking for a Physician Assistant or a Family Nurse Practitioner to join their busy practices serving patients across the generations. As we care for patients of all ages, we cannot consider Adult/Gerontology trained Nurse Practitioners. We are seeking someone willing and able to float to both practices seeing same-day patients.
Practice currently has a mix of physicians and Advanced Practice Providers. Team-based care is supplemented with Behavioral Health, Pharmacists, Social Workers, and experienced medical assistants working one-to-one with the providers. Ancillary services such as laboratory, x-ray, PT/OT, and specialty care are available on-site in Big Rapids.
As an employed physician in the Corewell Health Medical Group, you will have:
- A comprehensive and competitive compensation package
- Loan Repayment
- Relocation allowance
- Provider well-being and burnout resources through our Offices of Physician and APP Wellness
- Health, dental, vision, life, and malpractice insurance coverage.
- Short- and long-term disability coverage
- Defined contribution retirement plan and 403 (b) annuity plan
- Mentoring from other physicians within the medical group
- 30 days of paid time off per year plus 7 additional days off for nationally recognized holidays, now including Martin Luther King Jr. Day
- Paid dues, licensure, board fees, and CME
- Physician Concierge Services
- Connection to the resources as part of the largest health system in Michigan
People are at the heart of everything we do, and the inspiration for our legacy of outstanding outcomes, innovation, strong community partnerships, philanthropy, and transparency. Corewell Health is a not-for-profit health system that provides health care and coverage with an exceptional team of 65,000+ dedicated people—including more than 12,000 physicians and advanced practice providers and more than 15,500 nurses providing care and services in 21 hospitals, 300+ outpatient locations and several post-acute facilities—and Priority Health, a provider-sponsored health plan serving more than 1.3 million members.
