Family Physician

Seeking a physician with a PASSION for helping others and changing the healthcare system.

Euphora Health is transforming health care. Our practice model, direct primary care, allows you to untangle from insurance-based healthcare and get back to doing what is most important – taking care of your patients. Direct primary care changes everything – the office, customer service, and technology that supports our patients and employees.

With a typical patient panel of 600-700 patients with 10-12 office visits per day, patients receive the time and attention they deserve, and doctors have an adequate amount of time to be excellent at their job. We use advanced technology to ensure that our team has the time to care for our patients. Team members enjoy a high level of career satisfaction and work-life balance.

Euphora Health is growing in Austin and has designs to grow regionally in order to create a more user-friendly health care system that provides better outcomes.
