There are 34 physician-owned vascular surgery practices in Alabama, vetted against the NPPES NPI Registry. Hospital-employed, government, and academic positions are excluded.
A vetted list of 55 vascular surgery practices in Alabama that are still owned by the physicians who built them. Useful when the recruiter says you have no other options.
From your first MCAT prep book to your last in-training exam, the next step was always pre-written. Someone handed you the syllabus. You showed up. You did the work.
If a recruiter tells you the hospital is the only viable vascular surgery employer within driving distance, you should be able to name five physician-owned groups that prove otherwise before the end of the call. This directory is how you get to five. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.
Hospital-employed, government-operated, and academic positions are excluded. These are not independent private practices:

Then you hit your last year of training and the structure ends. Someone wires you a stipend to come look at a hospital. Someone else sends an MSA with a non-compete you do not have time to read.
You can read the contract once you know what else is out there. This directory is what else is out there. 55 vascular surgery groups in Alabama, physician-owned, cross-referenced against the NPPES NPI Registry. Start here.
There are 55 physician-owned vascular surgery practices in Alabama, spread across 13 cities. I pulled every one of them from the NPPES NPI Registry, which is the federal database that CMS maintains for active providers. Then I filtered out anything that isn't independently operated. Hospital-employed positions, academic faculty roles, locum agencies, government clinics, they're all excluded. What's left is a clean list of practices where physicians hold actual ownership and make their own clinical decisions.
If you're evaluating a move to private practice in Alabama, this is a starting point you won't find on a job board. Most boards mix employed positions with ownership opportunities, and they almost never tell you who actually owns the practice. Recruiters aren't much better. This page filters for physician ownership specifically, so you can focus on practices where clinical autonomy isn't just a talking point in an interview. It's built into the ownership structure.
Alabama's physician-owned vascular surgery directory lists 34 practice locations across 13 cities. The largest group is Varicosity Vein Center (2 locations).
None of the vascular surgery practices listed in Alabama carry a PE-Backed or Corporate-Acquired flag. All listings in this directory are physician-owned independent practices verified through NPPES.
Practices span 13 cities including Alabaster, Birmingham, Clanton, and Cullman.
Browsing 53,000+ practices is not the work. Translating that into a contract you understand and a lawyer who will read it with you is the work. Here is how.

“The map did not run out for you. It ran out for everyone in your year.”
Daniel Aragón, MD, MBAThere are 34 physician-owned vascular surgery private practices in Alabama, verified against the NPPES NPI Registry. All are independently operated. Hospital-employed, government, corporate, and academic positions are excluded.
A physician-owned practice is one where licensed physicians hold controlling ownership of the business entity. This is distinct from hospital employment, corporate medical groups, or private equity-backed practices where non-physician entities control the business.
The Corporate-Acquired flag means the practice was historically physician-owned but has since been acquired by a corporate entity such as Optum. The MSO-Affiliated flag means the practice uses a Management Services Organization for billing and administration while physicians retain practice-level ownership.
Alabama's physician-owned vascular surgery practices include Alabama Vascular Specialists, PC (Montgomery) and Vascular Associates of South Alabama, LLC (Mobile, 4 physicians).
NPPES is the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System, a federal database maintained by CMS. Every practice in this directory has an active NPI record in NPPES, confirming it is a registered U.S. medical practice.
When a vascular surgery practice owns its vascular ultrasound equipment and employs its own vascular technologist, the practice bills and collects the technical component of duplex ultrasound studies (carotid, lower extremity arterial/venous, ABI, AAA) separately from the physician's interpretation. The technical component is typically 2-3x the interpretation fee. For a surgeon generating 10 studies per week, that adds substantial annual revenue over and above professional fee income. IAC accreditation (InterSocietal Accreditation Commission) is required by most payers for technical component billing of vascular ultrasound.
