What makes family medicine physician hiring hard

The candidate pool is shrinking

Fewer residents choose family medicine each year while demand keeps growing. Passive recruiting, not postings, is where the candidates are.

Compensation structures confuse candidates

wRVU thresholds, quality bonuses, and guarantees need to be explained clearly. We translate your model so candidates can compare it fairly.

Relocation is the real hurdle

Spouse careers, schools, and licensing timelines sink more searches than salary. We surface these in the first call.

How we vet every family medicine physician

  • ABFM board certification or eligibility verified
  • State medical license status and IMLC eligibility confirmed
  • DEA registration and controlled-substance prescribing history checked
  • Outpatient, inpatient, and OB scope documented
  • Malpractice history and NPDB self-query reviewed
  • References from medical directors or practice partners

FAQ

Family Medicine Physician recruiting, answered

How much does it cost to hire family medicine physicians through MedStaff Nationwide?
We work on contingency: there is no retainer and no fee until your family medicine physician starts. The placement fee is a percentage of first-year base compensation, agreed in writing before the search begins, and every placement carries a replacement guarantee.
How long does a family medicine physician search take?
Our average time-to-fill across permanent clinical searches is 27 days from signed agreement to accepted offer. Family medicine physicians searches in competitive markets can run longer; your recruiter sets a realistic timeline during intake and reports against it weekly.
Do you recruit internal medicine physicians as well?
Yes. Internal medicine, family medicine, and med-peds searches run through the same primary care team. See our internal medicine physician recruiters page for that specialty.
What happens if the clinician leaves?
Every placement is covered by our replacement guarantee. If a placed clinician does not complete onboarding, we re-run the search at no additional cost. Our 12-month retention rate across placements is 96%.
