Full Job Description
This is a clinical leadership role with real impact. Full stop.

What makes this role different

Lead clinicians - not just operations

You'll mentor and develop Primary Care Providers across multiple clinics, supporting them in delivering relationship-based, whole-person care. You're not managing from a distance - you're in it with them.

Stay connected to patients

This is predominantly a leadership role with a clinical care component, where you will maintain a small patient panel to stay closely connected to the patient experience.

A care model designed for outcomes - not volume

We operate in a value-based model. That means your leadership is focused on quality, access, and outcomes - not throughput or visit counts.

Build and scale something meaningful

We're growing. You'll partner with senior leadership to open new clinics, develop teams, and scale a care model designed specifically for older adults with complex needs.

A real care team behind every clinician

Our model surrounds providers with support - including Gather Guides, Medical Technician Partners (EMTs/Paramedics), and integrated operations partners - so your teams can focus on care, not chaos.

What you'll do
• Carry a small patient panel while providing clinical leadership across multiple care centers in the Boston market
• Lead day-to-day clinical operations, including patient flow, care delivery, and team workflows
• Mentor, develop, and performance-manage Primary Care Providers and clinical staff through coaching, case discussions, and real-time problem solving
• Drive clinical quality outcomes while improving patient experience and implementing continuous quality improvement initiatives
• Lead clinical huddles and foster strong interdisciplinary collaboration across care teams
• Advance utilization management strategies to reduce avoidable ER visits and hospital admissions
• Partner with leadership to execute growth strategy, including new clinic openings and expansion efforts
• Support hiring, onboarding, and training of clinical teams across the region
• Collaborate with operations, growth, and community teams to improve patient access, engagement, and outcomes
• Use data, supported by our Gather Connect technology to continuously improve care delivery and performance

Requirements
• Board Certified in Internal Medicine, Family Medicine, or Geriatrics (MD/DO)
• Active Massachusetts medical license, or ability to obtain prior to start
• 7+ years of clinical experience in adult, family, or geriatric care
• 3+ years of clinical leadership experience
• Experience in value-based care models
• Strong clinical judgment and proficiency in evidence-based primary care
• Ability to lead, coach, and inspire teams in a collaborative, low-hierarchy environment
• Comfort working with the latest care delivery technology platforms
• Strong ethics and ability to navigate complex, sensitive situations

Preferred:
• Experience with HEDIS, STARS, or similar quality frameworks
• Background in utilization management
• Experience working with underserved or socially complex populations
