Join Our Team as an Emergency Medicine Physician – A Role Designed for You

Sound Physicians is a physician-founded and led, patient-first medical group grounded in one belief: better support for clinicians leads to better care for patients. Our emergency medicine teams are empowered to lead care locally with the backing of a strong national network committed to clinical excellence, intentional leadership development, and collaborative partnership.

If you’re looking for a place where your clinical judgment is valued, your growth is supported, and your work truly makes a difference, we’d love to talk.

Local Team Collaboration:

  • Join our close-knit team at The Medical Center at Albany.
  • Work alongside a community-minded team.
  • Accountable, on-site leadership: a medical director who knows the community and owns the department's performance, supported by Sound's leadership-development tools.

Qualifications:

  • Board-certified/eligible in emergency medicine, internal medicine or family medicine with emergency medicine experience.
  • Certifications Required for non-ABEM Physicians: BLS, ACLS, PALS, and ATLS.
  • Authorized to work in the United States.

Scheduling:

  • Flexible scheduling to support work-life balance and promote team support.
  • 24-hour physician coverage model with 24-hour shifts.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Provide care to approximately 6,000 patients each year at The Medical Center at Albany, a critical access hospital with a 7-bed emergency department.
  • Deliver timely, high-quality emergency care backed by Stroke Ready certification.
  • EMR: EPIC.

Living and Working in Albany:

  • Albany, KY (metro area approximately 6.5K) is the county seat of Clinton County, Kentucky, nestled in the Cumberland foothills near the Tennessee border.
  • Albany sits between two great lakes: Lake Cumberland to the north and Dale Hollow Lake to the south. If you love the water and a slower pace, it's the perfect community for you.

Rewards and Compensation:

  • Competitive 1099 compensation with paid malpractice and tail coverage.
