Family Physician Jobs in Massachusetts: Frequently Asked Questions

How do you become a family physician in Massachusetts?

To become a family physician in Massachusetts, you must complete medical school, finish a three-year accredited family medicine residency, and obtain an active license from the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Medicine. You must also pass the United States Medical Licensing Examination steps and achieve board certification through the American Board of Family Medicine. Massachusetts requires a separate controlled substance registration through the Department of Public Health for prescribing.

How much do family physicians make in Massachusetts?

Family physicians in Massachusetts earn a median of about $277,490 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $107,650 for the lowest 10% to over $384,390 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.

Which companies hire family physicians in Massachusetts?

Employers hiring family physicians in Massachusetts right now include Optum, Purple Cow Recruiting, and Jobot, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Massachusetts's concentration of large academic health systems and federally qualified health centers means many openings come with teaching responsibilities or mission-driven community health mandates.

Which Massachusetts cities have the most family physician jobs?

Boston, Worcester, and Lowell have the most family physician openings in Massachusetts. Boston drives the largest share through its dense network of academic medical centers and community health centers, while Worcester benefits from UMass Memorial Health and a growing shortage-area designation that draws additional recruitment, and Springfield reflects the high primary care demand across western Massachusetts's underserved communities.

Are there remote family physician jobs in Massachusetts?

Yes, but they are rare. Family medicine is fundamentally a hands-on, in-person role, so most positions require a physical clinical presence. About 4% of family physician openings tied to Massachusetts are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those that do exist are typically telephonic or video-based chronic disease management or urgent care triage roles rather than full primary care panels.

How can I get hired as a family physician in Massachusetts with little or no experience?

The most realistic entry path is applying for residency or fellowship positions at Massachusetts academic health systems such as Mass General Brigham, Boston Medical Center, or UMass Memorial Health, which run accredited training programs specifically for physicians completing their graduate medical education. New graduates who complete residency in Massachusetts often transition directly into staff positions within those same systems. Obtaining board certification eligibility and a Massachusetts medical license before your training ends gives you a clear edge in a competitive market.

Where can I find and apply to family physician jobs in Massachusetts?

You can find and apply to family physician jobs in Massachusetts on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the available roles, find the ones that fit your experience and preferred location, and apply directly to the employers posting them.
