Graves Gilbert Clinic

Graves Gilbert is one of only two physician-owned multi-specialty clinics in Kentucky — a structure that changes everything about how the place runs. With 30+ specialties, 1,064 employees, and eight Bowling Green locations plus regional sites, this is a large, sophisticated operation. But because the physicians are the owners, staff actually feel that investment. Physicians can become part-owners after just one year. And unlike a hospital, the hours are Monday through Friday — no nights, no weekends.

What they're hiring for: Physicians across specialties are the top priority. Also hiring nurse practitioners, mental health providers, lab and medical assistants, and radiology techs (X-ray and ultrasound).

Compensation and relocation: Graves Gilbert offers signing bonuses for physicians and select other roles — worth asking about early in the process. For relocating candidates, they've provided transitional housing (an apartment for a limited period) to bridge the gap between starting work and finding a permanent residence.

Their hiring process for higher-level roles is genuinely thoughtful: Graves Gilbert can currate a customized experience that includes tours of the community, school visits if you have kids, and a real effort to help you picture life here — not just life at the clinic. For physicians considering a move to a smaller market, that kind of intentional onboarding makes a real difference.

Employee voice: The clinic runs a "Bright Ideas" platform through which any employee can submit suggestions — a small detail that speaks to how seriously they take the physician-owner model all the way down the org chart.
