Family Medicine Physician
Direct Primary Care | Rockwall, Texas
Practice Model: Direct Primary Care (DPC)
Ramp-Up Base: $6,250/month
Growth Compensation: 60% of Membership Revenue*
Patient Panel: ~500 at Capacity
Work Setting: Outpatient
Long-Term Potential: Equity Ownership
Practice Medicine Differently
TrendHR is partnering with a thriving, physician-owned Direct Primary Care practice in Rockwall, Texas, to identify a Family Medicine Physician who is ready for a different way to practice medicine. The practice was built by a physician/owner who left traditional corporate medicine to create a patient-centered model focused on protecting the physician-patient relationship, reducing administrative burden, and giving physicians greater autonomy.
The opportunity is designed for a physician who wants the freedom and earning potential of building a personalized patient panel without taking on the full startup costs, overhead, staffing, systems, and operational risk of opening a practice alone.
The Direct Primary Care Model
Patients participate through a monthly membership rather than traditional insurance billing for routine primary care. The practice provides outpatient primary care to patients of all ages and does not provide obstetric care. A manageable panel of approximately 500 patients at capacity allows physicians to build meaningful long-term relationships while maintaining a more sustainable approach to medicine.
Compensation & Growth
Guaranteed base salary of $6,250 per month while building a patient panel until 160 patients is reached.
- After reaching at least 160 patients, compensation transitions to 60% of monthly membership revenue generated by assigned patients.
- Estimated annual physician earnings are approximately $234,000 at a 500-patient panel.
- During the early ramp-up period, physicians have the freedom to supplement income through outside urgent care or telemedicine work.
- The practice covers the operational overhead, while deductions are limited to physician-specific startup and licensing costs. The practice also pays employment taxes.
- Physicians who successfully build their practice, align with the organization long term, and contribute to its growth may have the opportunity to purchase equity in the practice.
What You'll Do
- Provide comprehensive outpatient primary care to patients of all ages, including preventive care and management of acute and chronic conditions.
- Build and maintain a personalized patient panel and develop long-term relationships with patients and families.
- Communicate directly with patients through office visits and appropriate direct-access channels.
- Collaborate with the physician/owner and clinical team while contributing to the continued growth of the practice.
- Help preserve a patient-centered, community-focused culture with a strong commitment to the physician-patient relationship.
Who We're Looking For
- Family Medicine Physician comfortable caring for patients across the lifespan.
- Physician who values autonomy, meaningful patient relationships, and a manageable panel size.
- Entrepreneurial mindset and interest in building a practice without starting completely from scratch.
- Interest in a sustainable long-term career model where income can grow alongside the patient panel.
- Potential interest in future leadership and equity ownership as the practice continues to grow.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
This is more than a traditional employed physician role. It offers a protected transition into Direct Primary Care, an established practice infrastructure, a natural flow of new patients, flexibility to supplement income while ramping up, significant long-term earning potential, and a possible pathway to practice ownership.
If you love being a physician but want a different relationship with medicine, this opportunity deserves a conversation.
