**Choose Practice Model that Best Suits your Life/Lifestyle!**

Oregon Medical Group/Optum is a primary care-based, multi-specialty group with offices throughout the Eugene and Springfield area. The group was established in 1988 when local clinicians envisioned a new practice that would allow them to provide patient-centered care and to live and work in the Willamette Valley.

More than 30 years later, the same elements drive the organization’s success and attract new clinicians to the community. Oregon Medical Group now consists of internists, family practitioners, pediatricians, obstetricians/gynecologists and many specialties including orthopedics, otolaryngology, endocrinology, pain management, podiatry, rheumatology, dermatology, sports medicine and neurology. We have a wide variety of ancillary services to support quality patient care and access, including laboratories, diagnostic imaging, a women’s health center, infusion services, anticoagulation, audiology, physical therapy and travel medicine.

We have immediate opportunity for experienced Physician Assistant to join our Primary Care team in Eugene/Springfield, OR. The clinicians we seek are those who practice medicine with a focus on patient care, not volume. We want our clinicians to take the time needed to truly address the patient’s needs.
