The posting, as Atria wrote it

About Atria

The Atria Health Institute is a membership-based primary and specialty health care practice with a focus on prevention and longevity. We bring together a multidisciplinary team of renowned physicians to provide proactive, preventive, and precision-based care for Atria members and their families. All care, including primary care, advanced screening and diagnostics, urgent care, specialty care, 24/7 home visits, and imaging is included in members’ annual fee.
Our mission is to make healthspan and lifespan equal for all by translating science into medicine in real-time, all while bringing humanity back into health care. Delivering such robust, personalized, and preventive health care is complex and requires a team-wide dedication to excellence.
After successfully opening our flagship Institute in New York in 2022 and expanding to South Florida in 2024, we are now bringing the Atria experience to the West Coast with the launch of our Los Angeles Institute in late spring 2026.

About the role
Atria uses point-of-care ultrasound at the bedside in every setting where we deliver care. Our clinicians scan in the Institute using our GE ultrasound equipment, and in members' homes using handheld Butterfly devices. The Director of Point-of-Care Ultrasound builds the program that makes this consistent, credentialed, and clinically reliable across the enterprise.
The role spans training, credentialing, image quality, workflow integration, and the technology roadmap. You will work in close partnership with our Director of Radiology, who co-owns credentialing and image quality review with you. Your collaborators extend across pediatrics, urgent care advanced care providers, Home Services nursing, and primary care clinicians, as well as cardiology and other specialties where point-of-care diagnostics are part of practice.
This is a role for a physician who wants to bring emerging technology to the bedside. We are looking for someone who will evaluate and deploy AI-enabled acquisition and interpretation tools as they mature, and who will make point-of-care ultrasound a dependable part of how our clinicians think, in the Institute and in the home.
The position is expected to grow. We anticipate scope and time allocation expanding as the program matures.
This position is held concurrently with an emergency medicine appointment at Atria, either per diem, part-time or full-time. Physicians already practicing with Atria and candidates applying for our emergency medicine openings are both eligible.
