Job description
The U.S. healthcare system has a design problem. Orthopedic care – one of the most in-demand, highest-impact specialties in medicine – is locked behind a system that treats access as a privilege, not a right. We re-built Genesis to fix that.
nAfter 17 years studying what traditional practice gets wrong, we tore up the playbook. What we've built is something the industry hasn't seen: a financially sustainable, high-throughput, accessibility-first orthopedic model that doesn't ask patients to choose between quality and affordability. We're not a nonprofit. We're not a hospital system. We're a private practice operating at startup velocity – and we’d love for you to join us.
nWe’re looking to relieve our existing surgeons from significant burden, and also grow new volume. We need a surgeon who wants to build something, not just join something.
nThe Opportunity
nYou won't spend your first year hunting for volume. We'll provide you a near full case load from day one. Whether you focus on sports medicine, total joints, spine, upper extremity, pediatrics, foot and ankle, or prefer general orthopedics, we have a patient population that actually needs you. Then we'll give you the infrastructure to grow: 1-3 APPs who refer into your clinics, EPIC EMR, strong referral networks, and the support of the largest health systems in Illinois.
nBut the real upside isn't just the compensation (though it's competitive). It's potential equity. It's the chance to be a builder – a partner – in a model that's going to define what orthopedic care looks like in the next decade.
nWhat You'll Work On
nnnHigh-volume, high-variety casework. We are looking for surgeons across sports medicine, total joint replacement, spine, hand & wrist, shoulder, hip, knee, elbow, foot & ankle, and even pediatrics, or General Orthopedics.
n
nnShaping clinical protocols with a team that's data-obsessed and outcomes-driven, where cost reduction is a priority.
n
nnResearch and product development opportunities for surgeons who want to push the field forward
n
nnTeam physician roles with professional sports teams and local institutions
n
nnPractice-building – referrals, relationships, community presence – for those who want ownership over their growth
n
n nWho We're Looking For
nYou're BC/BE in orthopedics (generalist or subspecialist – we want both). You're licensed in Illinois or can be. What actually matters:
nYou think like an operator. You care about efficiency, outcomes data, and sustainable unit economics – not because someone told you to, but because you understand that accessible care only works if the model works.
nYou want to own something. Not just a panel. A practice. A model. A future.
nYou believe the system can be better. And you're tired of waiting for someone else to fix it.
nYou want to be able to treat everyone…tired of people telling you who you can help, and who you can’t because of insurance.
nThe Stack

nnEquity / partnership pathway

nnFull benefits (health, dental, vision, retirement)
n
nnMalpractice coverage
n
nnCME allowance
n
nnShared call
n
nnEPIC EMR
n
nnReal administrative support

n nAbout Genesis
nMost orthopedic practices pick a lane: either they serve patients with means, or they serve everyone else. We rejected that tradeoff.
nGenesis is a full-spectrum musculoskeletal platform – surgery, physical therapy, and everything in between – operating across 16 clinics throughout Chicagoland. We've built the kind of end-to-end care infrastructure that most health systems spend decades trying to assemble. We did it in the community, on purpose, for everyone.
nAt the core, we know every surgeon is driven to provide high-quality work. The problem is that the existing system doesn’t allow that quality you to give it to some people (not everyone). At Genesis we’re committed to changing that. Whether you’re a professional athlete (whom we serve) or a laborer immigrant, we’re committed to ensuring that everyone gets access to high-quality that you can provide.
nWe also run clinical trials – because we're not just delivering the current standard of care, we're helping define the next one. Surgeons here have the opportunity to contribute to research that moves the field, not just their panel.
nThis is what a modern MSK platform looks like when you build it around the patient instead of the payer.
nIf you're ready to stop practicing inside a broken system and start building the one that replaces it – apply now.
nGenesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine is actively reviewing applications. Generalists and subspecialists both encouraged to reach out.
