Full description

Location: Hilo or Kona, Big Island of Hawaii

Employment Type: Full-Time

Organization: Independent, Physician-Owned Emergency Medicine Group

About the Opportunity

We are actively recruiting BC/BE Emergency Medicine physicians who are ready to advance their careers while experiencing the unmatched lifestyle of Hilo or Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. This opportunity offers true partnership, financial stability, and the ability to live and practice medicine in one of the most beautiful locations in the world.

Why Join Our Group
  • Democratic, Physician-Owned Organization - no corporate investors; every voice matters
  • True Partnership Track - invest in your future with long-term equity and governance participation
  • Diverse Practice Settings - from low-volume community hospitals to high-volume medical centers
  • Commitment to Quality - robust data analytics, risk management, and evidence-based protocols
  • Academic & Community Engagement - affiliations with the University of Hawaii John A. Burns School of Medicine, EM residency teaching, and opportunities in hyperbaric & dive medicine


Compensation & Benefits
  • Highly Competitive, Productivity-Based Compensation and Significant Sign-On Bonus
  • Substantial Annual Retirement Contributions - build lasting financial security
  • 6 Weeks of Blocked Vacation Time Annually
  • 100% Paid Family Medical, Dental, Vision, and Prescription Coverage
  • 100% Paid Malpractice with Tail Coverage, Paid CME, ACEP Dues, Licensing, and Credentialing Fees
  • 100% Paid Long-Term Disability Stipend and Group Policy
  • Top 5 State Student Loan Repayment Program (for eligible applicants)


Lifestyle & Location - The Big Island of Hawaii

Experience a lifestyle that few places in the world can match. Living and working on the Big Island means combining a rewarding Emergency Medicine career with daily access to outdoor adventure and natural beauty.

  • Outdoor Adventure: Explore black-sand beaches, lush rainforests, waterfalls, and active volcanoes.
  • Ocean & Mountain Life: Surf, dive, kayak, or climb snow-capped Mauna Kea-all in one day.
  • Island Culture: Welcoming communities, local traditions, and farm-to-table cuisine.
  • Climate & Convenience: Year-round sunshine, no state income tax, and short commutes.
  • Family-Friendly: Safe neighborhoods, excellent schools, and strong community ties.


Whether you choose the lush, cultural vibe of Hilo or the sun-soaked coastal lifestyle of Kona, you'll enjoy a close-knit medical community that values both clinical excellence and personal balance.

Qualifications
  • MD or DO with ABEM or AOBEM Certification / Eligibility
  • Current ATLS, ACLS, and PALS certification
  • Eligible for or currently holding a Hawaii medical license
  • Strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Dedication to clinical excellence and teamwork


Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This position offers the rare combination of partnership, autonomy, and island lifestyle. You'll join a group that has remained independent, democratic, and physician-governed for over five decades-proving that emergency medicine can still be practiced with both purpose and balance.

Apply Today

We are actively scheduling confidential interviews and welcome the opportunity to discuss how you can join our independent, physician-led group.
