Where to advertise, what it costs, and what the rules allow.

An independent reference for recruiters hiring physicians, physicians weighing their next move, practices looking for patients, and the companies that market to doctors.

Every price on this site carries the date it was last checked.

What the site holds

Physician job boards, priced on one page.

Every board, career center and locum agency in the directory is described with the same fields, so two of them compare line by line instead of brochure by brochure.

  • What a posting costs and how long it stays up
  • Whether there is a free tier or a CV database
  • Which specialties and how much locum work it carries
  • The day the price was checked, and the page it was checked on
Compare the job boards

What a listing site charges a practice.

Booking sites, review sites and doctor directories each publish their terms in their own words. The directory puts them side by side for the practice that pays, not the patient who searches.

  • How each site charges: per booking, by subscription, or free
  • How a practice claims its profile, and how reviews are handled
  • Which specialties each site is built for
Compare listing sites in the directory

What each specialty pays, state by state.

Pay pages use the federal Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics survey, not a self-reported form, and say plainly what that survey leaves out.

  • National employment, mean and median pay for each physician occupation
  • A state table and the metro areas that pay the most
  • The release date, and the limits: employer survey, no self-employed physicians, a top-coded wage

What does an open position cost?

More than the job ad. An empty schedule earns nothing, locum cover is billed by the day, and an agency fee or a season of board postings comes on top. The recruitment cost calculator lines those costs up, each with its source and year, so the figure you take to a budget meeting has a footnote.

Sources: prices come from each venue's own published pages, pay figures from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, and rules from each state's medical board and the federal agencies that write them. Each figure names its source and the day it was read.
