Company Description

Winters Healthcare is a non-profit Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) located in Northern California dedicated to providing exceptional, compassionate medical care to all individuals, regardless of their ability to pay. Serving over 3,000 patients, Winters Healthcare offers primary care through a team-based model integrating behavioral health, perinatal, dental, and pharmacy services in house. We use advanced technology and data-driven processes to enhance patient empowerment and care quality. Our mission is to provide compassionate care as partners with our community to improve lives and inspire health, while our vision emphasizes empowering patients to make healthy choices for better outcomes.

We're seeking a compassionate, Spanish-speaking MD or DO (OB experience preferred) to join our Winters clinic, where patient relationships matter and time is protected to support them. With a balanced 4-day workweek (32 hours: ~28 clinical, 4 admin), an average of ~9 patient visits per shift, and appointment times that honor complexity (15-min, 30-min, and same-day slots), you will have the time to practice medicine and care for your patients the way it was meant to be. Plus, enjoy protected admin time and the support of evolving tools like Ambient AI to reduce documentation burden and help you stay focused on what matters most... your patients and your well-being!

If you were a Family Physician with Winters Healthcare, you would provide care for our patients with a care team, alongside one of our five care team providers. “Team [insert your name here],” includes a compassionate Medical Assistant, a motivating Population Health Coach (PHC), and a designated Patient Service Coordinator (PSC) working side-by-side for your panel of patients. You will work with our Clinical Psychologists for warm hand-offs and other behavioral health consultation and support. To enhance our integrated care teams, and resources for patients, we also have our dental department right across the lobby, as well as an on-site pharmacy. 

Our services include adult and pediatric primary care, chronic disease management, prenatal care, and minor procedures. Your day will vary from visit to visit: an 18-month-old well-child visit, to a 63-year-old uninsured male with a cough, to a diabetic migrant-seasonal farm worker, or a 25-year-old female coming in with her first pregnancy. Each care team typically sees around 17 – 22 patients in an 8-hour shift, and have patient panels that average around 700. We place emphasis on establishing trusting relationships while being devoted to quality health outcomes and we have the data and measures results to prove it.

The ideal candidate is a bilingual (English/Spanish) FM-MD who provides prenatal care up to 36 weeks. Additionally, our ideal candidate enjoys being on a team, making connections, building relationships, and providing health care regardless of one’s insurance or ability to pay. In addition, the ideal candidate will have strong communication skills, and the ability to establish effective, trusting relationships with patients, colleagues and the community. Can you see yourself here? We hope so!
