There are 19 physician-owned internal medicine practices in Alaska, vetted against the NPPES NPI Registry. Hospital-employed, government, and academic positions are excluded.
Most PGY-Final-Year physicians sign their first internal medicine contract in Alaska without knowing what else is out there. This directory shows the 30 groups they were never told about.
Years one through fifteen had structure. A curriculum. A rotation block. An attending who knew what came next and told you. You trusted the structure because the structure had never failed.
Most internal medicine physicians sign their first contract without knowing how many other groups exist within driving distance. This is the single largest source of leverage you give away in your career, and you give it away because nobody told you the information was out there. 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 PGY-Final arrives. Suddenly there is no syllabus, no advisor telling you which clause to push back on, no upperclassman who has done this before. There is only a contract and a clock.
The map of independent internal medicine in Alaska was never compiled. So we compiled it. 30 practices, all physician-owned, all in one place. Now you can see what is around you before you sign into one corner of it.
This directory covers 19 independently operated internal medicine practices in Alaska. The data comes from two sources: the NPPES NPI Registry (the federal provider database maintained by CMS) and DataForSEO business listings for contact details and descriptions. I've excluded every practice that doesn't qualify as physician-owned. That means hospital-employed positions, academic roles, and corporate medical groups are filtered out. What remains is 30 practices across 4 cities.
The distinction between physician-owned and corporate-owned isn't just a label. It determines how a practice makes decisions about staffing, compensation, patient volume, and reinvestment. This directory exists because no other resource separates physician-owned internal medicine practices in Alaska from everything else. Every listing has an active NPI, is independently operated, and represents a real opportunity where a physician sets the clinical direction. Not an MBA. Not an investor. A doctor.
Alaska's physician-owned internal medicine directory lists 19 practice locations across 4 cities.
None of the internal medicine practices listed in Alaska carry a PE-Backed or Corporate-Acquired flag. All listings in this directory are physician-owned independent practices verified through NPPES.
Practices are located in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Palmer, and Wasilla.
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.
You are already here. 19 physician-owned internal medicine groups in Alaska, vetted against NPPES.

“You are not lost. You were never given the next page.”
Daniel Aragón, MD, MBAThere are 19 physician-owned internal medicine private practices in Alaska, 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.
Alaska's physician-owned internal medicine practices include Internal Medicine Associates (Anchorage), Nick Sarrimanolis, MD - Internal Medicine (Fairbanks, founded 2001), and Alaska Hospitalist Group (Anchorage).
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.
It depends on the contract. Some private internal medicine practices in Alaska pay the tail premium for physicians who complete a defined tenure (often 2-3 years). Others require the departing physician to pay. Tail premiums for internists typically run 1.5-2x the annual premium, on a $20,000/year policy, that is a $30,000-$40,000 out-of-pocket cost at departure. Negotiate tail coverage obligations before signing any offer letter.
