THCB Job Board w/UPDATE

The Last privately owned and operated General Practice in all of Strafford County New Hampshire seeks a young(er) associate physician. The good news: I am a Harvard educated MD MPH with 42 years experience, working this practice since 1989.

(We see patients from New Hampshire, Maine, and Massachusetts, and further) Approximately 10,000 people in the Rochester catchment area, and beyond, believe that I am their family doctor, and have been fiercely loyal.
