Ottawa Region and Durham area (Oshawa, Whitby, Ajax, Pickering) and Peterborough, Ontario | Permanent | Full-time, part-time, or flexible

Consultative internal medicine with cardiology colleagues, same-site diagnostics, and room to build your own clinic.

A physician-led cardiology and internal medicine group is recruiting an Internist as it expands across Ottawa, Durham, and Peterborough. This is a community-based consultative practice with a strong flow of referrals, a full non-invasive cardiac diagnostic suite down the hall, and a management team that takes the operational load off you.

The role suits a general internist who enjoys ambulatory consultative medicine, chronic disease management, and cardiovascular risk work alongside cardiologists. If you want to develop a clinic of your own in hypertension, lipids, preventive medicine, or another area, the owners are ready to fund it.

About the practice

The group has clinics across the Ottawa Region, the Durham area, and Peterborough. Six physicians currently practise with the group. They're supported by cardiac sonographers and technicians, dedicated MOAs, a clinical coordinator, an in-house billing department, and a management team that runs day-to-day operations so physicians can focus on patients. The group serves a diverse, multicultural population. Monthly testing volumes run between 300 and 500 studies and are growing, and wait times for cardiac testing are held to one to two weeks. Three new clinics are planned, space isn't a constraint, and capital is available for new equipment and services.

What you'll do

• Provide consultative general internal medicine care to adult patients referred by community physicians and from within the group.
• Assess and manage complex and multi-system conditions, with an emphasis on hypertension, dyslipidemia, diabetes, and cardiovascular risk reduction, working with the group's cardiologists.
• Order and act on on-site cardiac diagnostics, with interpretation supported by cardiology colleagues.
• See about 20 to 25 patients per clinic day, on a schedule set around your availability.
• Take part in regular physician and management meetings and help shape clinical workflows and quality standards.
• If you want to, lead new internal medicine or preventive programs, such as a hypertension, lipid, or preventive medicine clinic, and take on leadership or medical directorship roles as new sites open.

Compensation and terms

• Fee-for-service billing under a percentage-split arrangement.
• A management fee of 25% of billings, which drops as you add clinical days with the group.
• The fee covers rent, staffing, billing and revenue cycle, EMR, supplies, equipment, marketing, scheduling, diagnostic testing support, and all administrative support. There are no separate charges.
• Dedicated MOA and administrative support, plus dedicated nursing and technical support.
• New services are owned by the group, with capital available for equipment and space.

Qualifications

• MD or equivalent, with a completed residency in Internal Medicine.
• Royal College certification (FRCPC) in Internal Medicine, or eligibility.
• Licensed, or eligible for licensure, with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO).
• An interest in cardiovascular risk management and chronic disease care is an asset.
• Canadian-trained, US-trained, and internationally trained internists who meet CPSO requirements are encouraged to apply. New graduates and experienced internists are equally welcome.
• A collaborative style and comfort working in a multicultural clinical setting.

Why this role

• You'd practise alongside cardiologists with same-site echo, stress testing, and Holter monitoring, and results come back within one to two weeks.
• The 25% overhead is fully inclusive, with no separate equipment, billing, or lease fees, and the rate improves as you add clinical days.
• The clinic team handles scheduling, intake, referrals, and billing, and you'd have full MOA, nursing, and technical support.
• Three new clinics are in development, and the owners are willing to fund programs an internist wants to lead.
• You set your own days and hours.
