Connect with in-market physicians

Expa surfaces licensed physicians before they hit job boards, from newly board-certified doctors to experienced clinicians seeking better alignment with practice culture, patient population, or work-life balance.

Problem

Growing patient demand. Shrinking physician workforce.

An aging population, physician burnout, and early retirements are creating unprecedented staffing gaps. Meanwhile, hospitals, private equity groups, and established practices are all competing for the same limited pool of qualified doctors.

Same recruiters, same fatigue

Physicians are bombarded with generic offers daily. Most ignore them. To break through now requires understanding what truly matters: autonomy, call schedule, patient panel size, EMR system, and organizational culture, not just compensation.

Strong opportunities, weak messaging

When every listing promises "competitive salary" and "excellent benefits," nothing differentiates. Physicians want specifics about patient mix, support staff ratios, administrative burden, and growth trajectory before they even consider applying.

More outreach, less engagement

Blasting more job posts across more platforms doesn't solve the pipeline problem. The best candidates aren't unresponsive, they're selective, burned out, or quietly exploring. What works is early engagement with physicians showing in-market signals.

Solution

Reach physicians before your competitors do

Three strategies to surface physician talent early

New attendings and fellows

Connect with newly board-certified physicians and graduating fellows entering the job market, often before they've narrowed their geographic or practice preferences.

Physicians exploring a change

Identify practicing physicians showing early signs of transition interest, from burnout in high-pressure settings to seeking better work-life balance, partnership tracks, or reduced administrative burden.

Geographic and lifestyle matching

Find physicians with roots in your region: residency or fellowship alumni, returning locals, trailing spouses, or doctors seeking specific lifestyle factors like school districts or outdoor recreation.

AI that understands physician recruiting

Specialty and subspecialty filtering:

Surface candidates by board certification, fellowship training, procedural skills, or niche expertise, from interventional cardiology to pediatric endocrinology.

Practice model alignment:

Match physicians based on preferences for employed vs. independent practice, call requirements, patient volume expectations, teaching involvement, or partnership timelines.

Convert passive interest into active candidates:

Engage physicians browsing your careers page with 24/7 AI chat that qualifies based on specialty, location preferences, and career stage in real time.

Success stories from the field

We'd been trying to fill a family medicine position in our rural clinic for over a year. Expa surfaced a mid-career physician looking to escape urban burnout and an early-career doctor whose spouse just got a job nearby. Both were perfect fits, and neither had applied through traditional channels. We hired both within six weeks.
