Working in primary care at VA means being on the front lines of our mission to serve Veterans.

“You’ll be caring for those who have served our nation in wartime and peacetime. What greater satisfaction can you get from practicing medicine?” asked Samuel Wright, a national health care recruitment consultant.

But our mission isn’t the only benefit you’ll find when you take a job at VA.

To help us share what makes working at VA so excellent for primary care practitioners, we reached out to VA physicians, physician provider recruiters (PPRs), and national health care recruitment consultants, who shared what they consider the prime reasons you should consider a VA career.

Curious? Here’s a sample.

“Our physicians are able to have a work-life balance unlike any in the civilian sector,” said Brad Cargill, a PPR in Fayetteville, Arkansas. “At VA, you’ll know what it’s like to have your family count on you being there for games, anniversaries, birthdays and special occasions.”

    I just wish the VA would do for Veterans what they do for their staff.

    This is to those saying the Va needs to do more. I believe the vha is a fantastic resource that I am thankful for. They only have the power we give them. Like any other job they are filled by humans, and last I checked none are perfect and mistakes are made. It’s sucks but it’s life, no one or no entity is perfect but look at the positive effects the va has on the community.

    No I’m not a Va employee, I am a disabled veteran
