Papa Docs is a physician-led medical practice dedicated to advancing care for older adults by addressing both medical needs and the social factors that influence health. Our team provides virtual, compassionate, and evidence-informed care that integrates medical and social care delivery — meeting older adults where they are.
We serve Medicare beneficiaries through a physician-directed, community-based care navigation model. Physicians collaborate with trained Community Care Advocates who help older adults navigate local services, address gaps in social support, and improve overall well-being. This clinical model is designed to identify, assess, and manage both medical and social risks using scalable, tech-enabled workflows that are grounded in trust, dignity, and accessibility.
Papa Docs is supported by Papa Health, a wholly owned subsidiary of Papa, Inc., which provides non-clinical management and technology infrastructure. This alignment allows Papa Docs’ physicians to focus fully on patient care while ensuring that services are accessible, scalable, and grounded in community.
We are seeking a mission-driven, collaborative
to join Papa Docs by integrating health-related social needs (HRSNs) into care delivery. This is a high-impact opportunity to work at the intersection of clinical care and social support.
As a Physician Partner, you will provide synchronous and asynchronous telemedicine consultations for older adults, conduct virtual assessments, and generate care plans that address both medical and social needs. These care plans will be implemented and supported by Community Care Advocates. As of the early physician partners, you'll have significant influence over how we deliver care and design our clinical workflows. If you've ever wanted to shape a clinical practice from the beginning rather than inherit someone else's playbook, this is that chance.
Conduct virtual visits with older adults and review their medical history
Identify health-related social needs (HRSNs) as part of the care planning process
Create and update care plans that guide Community Care Advocates in providing community health support services to patients

Compassionate, patient-first mindset
Comfort working in a fast-moving, tech-enabled environment (experience with telemedicine is a plus)
