Join Aayu Clinics:

Where Excellence Meets Purpose Read this part carefully before you apply, because we mean it. Please do not apply if you do not match this criteria. We are looking for exceptional new graduate physician assistants to join our team. Not good ones. Exceptional ones. If you finished in the top quartile of your class, keep reading. If you didn't, this is not the right posting for you, and that is okay. We are this direct for a reason. We invest serious time and effort grooming the clinicians we bring on, and that investment only makes sense for the very best. We would rather tell you plainly what we are looking for than waste your time or ours. Exactly Who We Are Seeking We want new graduates who are all of the following, not just some : Top of your class academically. You have a genuinely strong knowledge base and you know it. Humble. You are confident without ego, and you know how much there still is to learn. A real team player. You make the people around you better and you take feedback well. Here for the right reason. You came to medicine to perform and provide the highest level of care, not primarily for the money. (we still pay well) Relentless about improvement. You constantly push yourself to get better, and you always have. Strong in attitude and character. How you show up matters to us as much as what you know. If that sounds like you, we should talk. If this doesn't sound like you, please don't apply. Our Selection Process Is Rigorous by Design Only the top candidates make it through, and that is the point. Our process has two parts. First, we assess what you know. We screen your knowledge base and your clinical acumen directly. This is not a resume formality. We want to see the depth of your understanding, how you reason through cases, and how you handle diagnostic uncertainty. We will walk through real clinical scenarios and see how you think, not just what you have memorized. Only about 10% make it through this first stage. Then, we go deeper on who you are. We take a hard look at your attitude, your personality, and your potential as a teammate. We are trying to understand your character, your humility, your coachability, and whether your values line up with how we practice. Clinical knowledge gets you into the conversation. Attitude and fit are what carry you through it. We go this deep because once we choose you, we commit fully. We are going to invest years in your development, so we choose carefully. What You Get in Return We don't just hire you. We build you into the clinician you want to become. Physician-led mentorship from experienced clinicians who invest in your growth. A structured academic curriculum , including CME lectures, clinical literature deep-dives, and real-world case mastery. Graduated autonomy with a safety net always in place, moving you from mentored beginning to confident independent practice. Ongoing one-on-one mentorship from our Medical Director, Dr. Abhi Shinde. This is medical residency-level rigor without the sleep deprivation and the exploitation. It is intentional, it is demanding, and it is transformative. A Model Built on Integrity Many clinics run a numbers game, packing clinicians with 60 to 70 patients in a shift because their margins depend on your productivity. When something gets missed, you carry the liability and the license risk while they keep the profit. We built Aayu differently. Reasonable patient loads that let you think, listen, and diagnose. Your reputation protected, because we will never ask you to practice in a way that invites risk. Shared accountability, where success comes from quality care and not from burning out talented people. The Complete Package Highly competitive salary ($129K to $175K, based on experience) Big-hospital benefits with small-company culture Subsidized medical, dental, vision, and life insurance CME allowance plus free continuing education Professional development and tuition reimbursement Employee assistance program and employee discount Flexible schedule and paid time off Retirement plan Ready to Prove You're One of the Best?

Apply now, and be ready to be thoroughly evaluated, thoroughly invested in, and thoroughly developed.
