Job Description Summary
Practice medicine in Chula Vista, one of Southern California's fastest-growing and most diverse communities.

• Work alongside a dedicated Whole Health Coach embedded in your care center, addressing behavioral, lifestyle, and psychosocial factors in-house.
• Onsite lab and pharmacy — no referral friction, no waiting on outside results to make a clinical decision.
