In April 2024, it was rated the best small coastal town in the U.S. by USA Today News (up from 2nd best in 2023). The Wall Street Journal labels Stuart as "The New Gold" of the Treasure Coast. USA Today ranks Stuart beach as the 7th best in the South. Travel and Leisure ranks it "America's Best Small Retirement Town Is a Hidden Gem Along Florida's Treasure Coast With Perfect Beaches and a Charming Downtown." This is the sweet spot of the East Coast of Florida, which has tropical weather unlike areas to the North, avoiding the congestion and managed care insurance situation south of here. Public schools are ranked "A-". Combine a great lifestyle with a practice that's even better.
We are offering excellent compensation. NO HOSPITAL CALL, few practice calls. Clinical research center provides access to the latest therapies and a significant additional income stream. This waterfront practice offers a high quality of life for its physicians. We've never had a malpractice suit.
