Job Opportunity: Emergency Medicine Physician

Location: Coastal Delaware — specifically the Delaware Beaches (Lewes / Sussex County), approximately 83 miles from Philadelphia.

Employment Type: Full-Time, Emergency Medicine (BC/BE)

Compensation: Competitive compensation package within the Mid-Atlantic region; detailed information will be provided during a confidential discussion.

Practice Model: Independent, physician-owned, democratic structure with an 18-month path to equal partnership, including full voting rights.

Why Join Us?

Become part of one of the few remaining independent, democratic emergency medicine groups on the East Coast. This physician-owned organization has maintained the same hospital contract since 1998 and currently operates across two locations: a hospital emergency department (Level III Trauma Center, just a mile from the beach) and a freestanding emergency department in Millville. A new freestanding ED is also being developed in Delaware's fastest-growing area, set to open in 2027. The combined annual patient volume exceeds 65,000 visits.

Highlights of This Emergency Medicine Position

• Our partners rarely leave; we typically hire only one physician annually, making this expansion a unique opportunity.
• The partnership track lasts just 18 months, one of the shortest in independent emergency medicine, culminating in equal ownership and full voting rights.
• Upon becoming a partner, your compensation per RVU approximately doubles, and even the least productive owner earns more than the highest-producing non-partner.
• If you seek ownership, a manageable clinical pace, and a beach town lifestyle, this practice is tailored for you.

Work Environment and Responsibilities

• Physicians rotate through all sites, ensuring an equitable distribution of RVUs — no preference for busier locations.
• Dedicated nocturnists take their shifts first; remaining nights, weekends, and holidays are shared fairly among the team.
• Shift lengths are 10 hours at the hospital and 12 hours at the freestanding EDs, with an average of about 14 shifts per month.
• On average, physicians see approximately 1.5 patients per hour.
• Work alongside a seasoned, long-standing PA team.
• Structured onboarding for residents includes 6-9 months of double coverage before transitioning to independent shifts at the freestanding ED.
• Utilize Epic EHR across all locations, equipped with Dragon dictation and AI clinical tools for daily operations.

Compensation and Benefits

Our compensation structure is transparent and aligned with physician interests: a guaranteed hourly base, night and holiday differentials, built-in longevity raises, a quarterly productivity bonus, and full partnership economics after 18 months — at which point your earnings per RVU significantly increase. We offer sign-on and relocation assistance, along with a comprehensive benefits package that includes:

• Fully funded medical coverage and HSA contributions.
• An annual profit-sharing plan contribution.
• A self-funded 401(k).
• Delaware's advantages: no sales tax and some of the lowest property taxes in the region.

Detailed compensation figures, including current hourly rates and typical annual earnings, will be shared during a confidential call.

Practice Locations

• Millville: Our freestanding ED, which opened in 2020, has 23 beds and sees about 15,000 visits annually in a lower-acuity, high-efficiency setting with 12-hour physician shifts.
• New Campus (Opening 2027): Under construction in Delaware's fastest-growing zip code, this facility will feature 16 emergency exam rooms, two dedicated pediatric rooms staffed by Nemours Children's Health specialists, advanced imaging capabilities, an on-site lab and pharmacy, and a helipad.

Why Choose the Delaware Beaches?

In Lewes, the beach serves as a backdrop for daily life rather than just a vacation spot. This premier coastal destination, known as "The First Town in the First State," boasts pristine beaches, a rich maritime history, and vibrant local dining options. The community offers a blend of relaxed bayfront activities, historic architecture, boutique shopping, and outdoor adventures. The main ED is located about a mile from Lewes Beach, with Cape Henlopen State Park — featuring six miles of guarded Atlantic beach and extensive bike trails — just minutes away. Rehoboth's boardwalk is a short 20-minute drive, and the Cape May-Lewes Ferry provides easy access to Victorian Cape May, just 85 minutes across the bay. Physicians and their families enjoy year-round living in a location where many from the Mid-Atlantic only visit for a week each summer.
