Working at VA means getting more from your primary care career

Within VA’s nationwide health care system, primary care providers like you can find more of what you’re looking for from a career even as you play a vital role in providing whole health care to Veterans.

“Have you wished that you could focus on the reason you became a doctor in the first place?” asked Dr. Holly Martz, M.D., chief of primary care in the VA Martinsburg Health Care System. “At VA, you can order the tests your patients need without having to convince an insurance company—or worrying about whether they can afford it.”

Additionally, VA medical centers are often training grounds for new physicians. With more than 70% of U.S. physicians having received some training at a VA health care facility, you’ll have a hand in shaping the next generation of clinicians.

“What I didn’t expect was a system that allows me to go home after each shift feeling empowered rather than depleted,” said Dr. Neil Patel of his work at VA.
