Capstone Recruiting Advisors recruits permanent hospitalists — day hospitalists, nocturnists, academic hospitalists, family medicine and med-peds hospitalists, and medical directors — for independent hospitalist groups, multispecialty groups, PE-backed platforms and hospitals nationwide. A partner runs every search.
The hospital medicine market
- 64% of hospital medicine groups expect to add FTEs in the coming year, and growth, not turnover, is now the biggest driver of unfilled positions (SHM, 2025).
- Of 62 groups that reported in both 2020 and 2025, 48 grew, by an average of 9.1 FTEs (The Hospitalist).
Who we recruit for: independent and physician-led hospitalist groups · multispecialty groups that staff hospital programs · PE-backed hospital medicine platforms · hospitals and health systems · academic medical centers.
How we search: we learn your schedule, census, nights, ICU and procedure expectations, APP support and comp model, then reach hospitalists who want that exact setup. Schedule and census are usually what candidates ask about first, so we qualify on them early.
