<p>A well-established, physician-led independent concierge practice in Tucson, Arizona is recruiting a Board-Certified Internal Medicine physician to join a small, intentionally structured panel of 500–600 members. The model is built around genuine continuity — 30-minute standard visits, extended comprehensive physicals, and 24/7 direct physician accessibility — with a daily patient volume of just 8–12. For a clinician who has grown frustrated with high-volume, transactional primary care, this is a substantive alternative, with a target compensation range of $350,000–$400,000 and a future ownership track available for those who want it.</p>
