🌊 Hire a Primary Care Physician in New Jersey

Hire a Primary Care Physician in New Jersey β€” Without the $48,000+ Agency Fee

Rural South Jersey counties carry real primary care gaps, even as North Jersey and the Newark-to-Jersey City corridor remain some of the most competitive physician markets on the East Coast. New Jersey's 2026 law made independent practice permanent for primary and behavioral health APNs specifically β€” but APNs in other specialties still need a written joint protocol with a physician, keeping physician-led collaboration valuable across most of the care team. MDdocjobs gives you direct access to 2,163+ registered physicians and APPs for $199 per posting. No agency. No commission. No middleman.

🌾
Rural South Jersey Needs You Most

Rural South Jersey counties carry real primary care gaps, and often compete against North Jersey and Central Jersey systems willing to pay steep agency fees.

🌊
North Jersey & Central Jersey Demand

New Jersey's densest metro corridors β€” bordering both New York City and Philadelphia β€” continue to need primary care physicians at scale.

πŸŽ“
Loan Repayment as a Recruiting Angle

NHSC and New Jersey loan repayment programs exist for physicians willing to serve underserved counties β€” a strong hook to include directly in your MDdocjobs posting.

πŸ₯

New Jersey's IMLC membership gives qualified out-of-state primary care physicians a well-established, expedited path into New Jersey practice.

πŸ’Š
Split-Scope NPs

New Jersey's 2026 law grants permanent independent practice only to primary and behavioral health APNs β€” APNs in other specialties still need a written joint protocol, so PCP hires stay valuable as collaborating physicians across most of the care team.

πŸ’°
$199 vs. $48,000+

Traditional New Jersey staffing agencies charge 20–25% of first-year salary for a PCP placement. MDdocjobs charges $199 per posting. No commission, ever.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does New Jersey's new APN law change how I should hire primary care physicians?
Somewhat, and only for certain APNs. New Jersey's 2026 law made independent practice permanent for APNs providing primary or behavioral health care specifically β€” they no longer need a collaborating physician. APNs outside those settings still require a written joint protocol with a physician, so primary care physician hires remain valuable as collaborating partners across most of the New Jersey care team.
Can MDdocjobs help me staff HPSA-designated primary care positions in New Jersey?
Yes β€” this is a specific strength of MDdocjobs for New Jersey. The database includes IMG physicians on J-1 waivers and NHSC-eligible physicians actively seeking HPSA-designated positions across rural South Jersey. Post your position with explicit shortage area, NHSC loan repayment, and Conrad 30 J-1 waiver language to reach this highly motivated candidate pool directly.
Is there a commission when I hire a primary care physician through MDdocjobs?
Never. MDdocjobs charges $199 per job posting β€” nothing more. Zero placement fee. Zero commission on hire. New Jersey physician staffing agencies charge 20–25% of first-year salary; MDdocjobs is $199.
Does MDdocjobs support visa-sponsored primary care hiring in New Jersey?
Yes β€” postings support H-1B and Conrad 30 J-1 waiver sponsorship language, especially valuable for rural and shortage-designated South Jersey counties.
Can I use MDdocjobs for ongoing primary care hiring, not just a single opening?
Yes β€” practices, FQHCs, and health systems with multiple open PCP roles post each at $199 while subscribing to the database at $199/month or $999/year for continuous proactive search.
