The Real Cost of Finding Illinois Physicians
Why Search Beats Waiting on a Contingency Recruiter
Waiting for a recruiter to surface candidates costs time and a commission on the back end. Searching yourself costs a flat monthly fee — and nothing more.

Why Search Directly
Built for Illinois-Scale Searching
Illinois covers 102 counties and multiple distinct healthcare markets — database search lets you filter down to exactly who you need, fast.
🗂️
Filter by Specialty & Subspecialty

Search by Primary Specialty, Subspecialty, Board Certification, State of Licensure, and Career Stage to narrow down to exactly the right candidates.

📍
Filter by Illinois Region

Search by metro or region — Chicago and its suburbs, or rural downstate HPSA counties.

🏥
Compact-Eligible Candidates

Illinois is an Interstate Medical Licensure Compact member state, so many registered candidates are already positioned to move quickly through Illinois licensure.

🛂
HPSA & Visa-Eligible Candidates

Filter for HPSA-seeking and J-1 waiver-eligible physicians actively looking for rural and shortage-designated Illinois positions.

📋
FPA Progress Filtering

Search physicians open to collaborating with an APP team — useful given how many Illinois NPs are still working toward Full Practice Authority.

🤝
Direct Contact, No Agency

Send direct recruiter inquiries yourself — no agency filters the pool or manages the relationship on your behalf.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find physicians in Illinois on MDdocjobs?
Subscribe to database access for $199/month or $999/year, then search the full 2,163+-candidate database directly, filtering by specialty, subspecialty, board certification, state of licensure, career stage, and Illinois region.
Is there a commission if I hire someone I found through database search?
Never. Your subscription — $199/month or $999/year — is the entire cost. There is no placement fee or commission owed on any hire that results from a database search.
Can I search for HPSA-seeking or downstate-region candidates specifically?
Yes — the database lets you search directly for HPSA-seeking, NHSC-eligible, or J-1 waiver-eligible physicians actively looking for rural and shortage-designated positions across downstate Illinois.
Should I subscribe monthly or annually?
Monthly access ($199/month) is a good fit for a single, time-limited search. Annual access ($999/year, an effective $83/month) is built for recruiters and teams searching continuously throughout the year and saves $789 over 12 months of monthly billing.
Does the database include out-of-state candidates who could move to Illinois?
Yes — and Illinois's membership in the Interstate Medical Licensure Compact means many out-of-state, Compact-eligible candidates in the database are positioned to move through Illinois licensure faster than the standard pathway.
Who is behind MDdocjobs?
MDdocjobs was founded by Darrell Stollings — a U.S. Army Medic Veteran, former ER and ICU Registered Nurse, and 16-year physician recruiter. MDdocjobs is Healthcare and Veteran Owned and Managed.
