Do you know
where you belong?

We do.

help me find out

We work with primary care residents and physicians to help them discover where they are meant to be.

We partner with hospitals, community health centers and anywhere else that provides a Tennessee community with care. We don’t just help you find a job and walk away, we work with you to change your life. Tell us how we can help.

Do you need assistance with living expenses or want to pay the interest on your student loans while you finish residency?  We can help there too.  Check out our Resident Incentive Program and introduce yourself to us; there is an easy contact form right on the page. Or call us; we love to talk.

You Can Make A Difference A patient needs care that only you can give.

Tennessee Needs You

We need you.

Smoking, obesity, cardiovascular and opioid related deaths are all rising in Tennessee and we need a strong primary care workforce to turn it around. Currently, Tennessee ranks 45th out of 50 on the 2017 America’s Health Rankings® annual report card for US states. 

We help because we care and we have a lot to do once you get here. 

Join us in Tennessee.

Geoffrey Lifferth, MD, Chief Medical Officer
Sumner Regional Medical Center

When I finished residency I was over $200,000 in debt. Unfortunately, that's not uncommon for medical students but the debt weighed on me. Working in Tennessee was a great decision for my family. It’s less expensive to practice and surprisingly, with no income tax and the Residency Stipend incentive, I made just as much as my colleagues in the big city and didn’t have to pay $30 to park when I needed groceries.

Working with the Center has been an absolute pleasure. The staff guided me all the way from starting a job search to signing a contract. They were attentive to what I was looking for in a position and put me in contact with several locations that matched my requests. We are very fortunate in this state to have an organization like the Tennessee Center for Health Workforce Development and any physician who wants to practice in Tennessee should start their inquiry here.
