Employment:  Full-Time

About the Opportunity

Step into a high‑impact Medical Director role where your clinical leadership will elevate wound care across Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs) throughout the Dallas–Fort Worth area. This is an exciting opportunity for a physician who is passionate about quality, education, and building a best‑in‑class care model.

This mobile, field‑based leadership position is ideal for a mission‑driven physician who thrives in dynamic environments, enjoys mentoring clinicians, and wants to influence outcomes at scale. Current Dallas-area postings reinforce strong market demand for Medical Directors with clinical leadership, utilization expertise, and advanced wound care knowledge. 

You will serve as the regional Subject Matter Expert for Wound Care, supporting a team of Nurse Practitioners and Physician Associates while strengthening partnerships within SNFs.

Key Responsibilities

Clinical Leadership & Oversight

• Provide oversight and guidance to a team of ~12 Nurse Practitioners and Physician Associates delivering mobile wound care across SNFs.
• Serve as the regional clinical authority and SME for complex wound cases, treatment planning, and escalation pathways.
• Review documentation, provide case feedback, and ensure alignment with evidence‑based wound care standards.

Education, Coaching & Development

• Mentor and develop NPs/PAs through bedside teaching, shadowing, and ongoing clinical coaching.
• Conduct daily field visits to observe care and reinforce clinical quality expectations.
• Train SNF nursing staff on wound prevention, advanced wound care protocols, and best practices.

Facility Relationship Building

• Conduct regular SNF visitations to build trust, strengthen partnerships, and serve as the primary clinical representative.
• Collaborate with facility leadership—including DONs and nursing teams—to optimize workflows and drive high‑quality outcomes.

Clinical Quality, Compliance & Standards

• Ensure clinical operations meet state regulations, documentation expectations, and internal compliance protocols.
• Support quality audits, policy development, documentation review, and process improvement initiatives.

Startup & Operational Contribution

• Help refine and scale clinical processes, onboarding methods, and best‑practice protocols.
• Demonstrate strong autonomy, sound judgment, and a patient‑first leadership style.
• Play a key role in shaping a culture centered on integrity, excellence, and compassionate care.

Requirements

Education & Licensure

• Doctor of Medicine (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO).
• Active, unrestricted Texas medical license.
• Board certification.
• 2+ years of wound care experience.

Experience

• Significant wound care experience required.
• Prior leadership experience preferred.
• Experience mentoring or overseeing NPs/PAs highly desired.

Availability & Work Style

• Full‑time availability.
• Willingness to travel daily across the Dallas–Fort Worth metropolitan area.
• Comfortable operating in a startup‑like environment with evolving processes.
• Strong moral compass, humility, and collaborative leadership style.

Technical & Administrative

• Proficient with EMR/EHR documentation standards.
• Reliable transportation for multi‑site travel.
• Ability to maintain a productive home office when not in the field.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Meaningful Impact: Influence wound care quality and outcomes across a major Texas metro region.
• Leadership Opportunity: Shape clinical standards, mentor future leaders, and improve care delivery systemwide.
• High Autonomy: Operate with independence while driving strategic clinical initiatives.
• Rapidly Growing Sector: Dallas postings show strong demand for clinical leaders in wound care and medical oversight roles.
