Job description

Optum is seeking a full-time Primary Care Physician to join our team in Carson.

A diverse and vibrant community in Los Angeles County, Carson has a central location, affordable neighborhoods, and easy access to beaches, parks, and cultural attractions, and offers a balanced lifestyle for professionals and families alike.

Step into a role designed for balance, purpose, and meaningful patient care :

  • Work-Life Harmony – Enjoy a consistent Monday–Friday, 8am–5pm schedule with no call and no weekends—your time matters, and we respect it.
  • Focused, Outpatient-Only Care – Deliver high-quality care in a modern outpatient setting, free from hospital rounds or overnight shifts.
  • Diverse Patient Engagement – See a variety of patients across the lifespan, with a focus on adults and seniors who value long-term, trusted care.
  • Manageable Patient Load – With an average daily census of 18 patients, you’ll have the time to build relationships and provide thoughtful, personalized care.
  • Thoughtful Scheduling – Appointments are structured for quality : 40 minutes for new patients, 20 minutes for follow-ups—no rushed visits here.
  • Team-Based Support – You’ll be backed by a dedicated team of nurses and medical assistants, so you can focus on what you do best : caring for patients.

Here’s what else you can look forward to :

  • Generous Paid Time Off – Recharge with ample PTO, dedicated CME days, and enjoy nine company-observed holidays when our clinics close so you can truly unplug.
  • Robust Retirement Support – Plan your future with confidence through our 401(k) with company match and access to the UHG Employee Stock Purchase Program.
  • Comprehensive Health Coverage – We’ve got you covered with medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and long-term disability benefits.
  • Peace of Mind – We provide company-paid medical malpractice insurance, so you can focus on what matters most—your patients.
  • Career Growth & Leadership – Whether you're looking to expand your clinical expertise or step into leadership, we offer ongoing professional development and a clear path to Physician Partnership.

    • Why Choose Optum?

  • Seamless, Coordinated Care : Collaboration is key. Our integrated care teams work together to navigate the health system efficiently, ensuring continuity, clarity, and compassion at every step.

    • What You’ll Need to Join Our Team :
