Emergency Physicians: High-Acuity Urgent Care Without the Burnout

Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group | San Diego, CAIf you enjoy procedures, acuity, and rapid decision-making—but are done with overnights, boarding, and hospital chaos—this is a true ED-to-Urgent Care transition role built for EM physicians.

Why EM Physicians Choose This Role

  • High-acuity, procedural urgent care — not fast-track medicine
  • Broad emergency-style cases without trauma activations or hospital call
  • No overnight shifts. Ever.
  • Predictable hours: 8:00 AM – 8:00 PM, 365 days/year
  • Flexible scheduling 6-, 8-, 10-, or 12-hour shifts
  • Average 2–2.5 patients/hour with strong clinical support
  • Fully resourced sites with on-site lab, radiology, and pharmacy
  • Epic EMR across the entire Sharp HealthCare system

Compensation

  • $147–$163/hour + wRVU incentives and group bonuses
  • Total annual compensation: $285K–$340K+
  • Paid malpractice with tail coverage
  • Sign-on bonus
  • PSLF eligible

Benefits That Actually Matter After the ED

  • 200 hours paid vacation annually (first 2 years)
  • Paid CME time + CME time/allowance
  • 401(k), Profit Sharing, and Money Purchase plans
  • 2-year shareholder track (4 years for half-time)
  • Full benefits available for half-time and full-time physicians

Who This Is Ideal For

  • Emergency Medicine physicians ready to leave nights and boarding behind
  • EM doctors who still want procedures, acuity, and autonomy
  • Physicians seeking long-term stability in a physician-led group
  • Those wanting an outpatient practice without skill atrophy

Why Sharp Rees-Stealy

  • Physician-led, multispecialty group founded in 1923
  • 19 clinic locations across San Diego County
  • Recognized nationally for quality, outcomes, and physician satisfaction
  • Backed by Sharp HealthCare—without hospital employment constraints
