We are seeking a part-time Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, or Geriatric Medicine physician to provide primary care at two distinct locations in the greater Philadelphia area: Mercy LIFE Assisi House in Aston and Mercy LIFE Valley View in Elwyn.

At Mercy LIFE Valley View, you will serve a unique community specifically comprised of deaf seniors. This role requires a willingness to learn American Sign Language to effectively communicate with and care for this population.
In this position, you will function in a collegial relationship with other healthcare professionals, making independent decisions regarding medical needs and health regimens under the supervision of the medical director. You will collaborate with the interdisciplinary team to assess participants, develop plans of care, and evaluate their effectiveness. The schedule consists of two 8-hour days at Assisi House and one 4-hour day at Valley View, with flexible weekday scheduling. Notably, no night, weekend, on-call, or holiday coverage is required for this role.
