About The Company
Practice Medicine the Way It Was Meant to Be. At Southern California Permanente Medical Group (SCPMG), physicians lead, innovate, and thrive. In partnership with Kaiser Foundation Health Plan and Kaiser Foundation Hospitals, SCPMG is transforming healthcare through Permanente Medicine, a model built on five core principles: physician-led, patient-centered, evidence-based, team-delivered, and technology-enabled care. As a physician-led medical group, our physicians shape the strategic direction of the organization and influence the day-to-day practice of medicine. Clinical decisions are made by physicians, creating an environment where your expertise, voice, and leadership matter. Our patient-centered approach drives everything we do. Supported by evidence-based medicine, integrated care teams, and advanced technology, physicians can focus on delivering exceptional care while building meaningful relationships with patients and colleagues. Through seamless collaboration across specialties, our physicians have access to the resources and support needed to achieve the best possible outcomes. The SCPMG care model fosters a culture of partnership, innovation, and continuous learning. Physicians work alongside highly skilled colleagues across virtually every specialty and subspecialty, creating opportunities for mentorship, professional growth, and leadership development. As part of Kaiser Permanente, physicians benefit from a coordinated care delivery system that reduces administrative complexity and enables them to focus on what matters most: their patients. We invest in our physicians through continuing education, leadership programs, technology support, and a nationally recognized Physician Wellness Program. For more than 60 years, SCPMG has delivered high-quality, innovative care across Southern California.

About the area
Kern County offers physicians and their families some of the region’s most affordable housing, along with several of California’s top natural attractions: it’s the closest SCPMG area to the great outdoor experiences of world-famous Yosemite, King’s Canyon, Sequoia, and Death Valley National Parks. The city of Bakersfield is a secret gem, with groves of old-growth trees, wide streets, and blocks of beautiful homes—without the typical Southern California traffic jams.


Working here
Kern County is unique within SCPMG. With its smaller-town, less urban feel, there is a true sense of family, of being an integral part of something very special. It’s the only medical center within SCPMG that can meet as one united group at the same time. Our area’s smaller size fosters open dialogue across all levels, offering physicians a voice and enabling constant improvements, small and large. Physicians enjoy the best of two worlds—operating within the stability and support of the Permanente system yet maintaining the feel of a smaller medical group. New hires are quickly integrated into the system, for accelerated learning and support. This welcoming spirit goes far beyond the medical center: Physicians’ spouses and families are actively connected to one another in social activities, formal and informal, and to local culture and activities.



Equal Employment Opportunity
External hires must pass a background check/drug screen. Qualified applicants with arrest and/or conviction records will be considered for employment in a manner consistent with Federal, state and local laws, including but not limited to the San Francisco Fair Chance Ordinance. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, gender identity, protected veteran, or disability status.
