Emergency Medicine Physician - Hilo & Kona, Hawaii

Emergency Medicine Physician

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.

Job Description

• Join a democratic, physician-owned organization with no corporate investors; every voice matters.
• Enjoy a true partnership track that allows you to invest in your future with long-term equity and governance participation.
• Work in diverse practice settings, from low-volume community hospitals to high-volume medical centers.
• Commit to quality with robust data analytics, risk management, and evidence-based protocols.
• Engage academically and in the community through 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 to 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.
