Pre-med. Med school. Match. Step 1. Step 2. Boards. Every year there was a next page, and someone always handed it to you.
Once you can name three independent infectious disease groups in your target city, every clause in your hospital contract becomes negotiable in a way it was not five minutes ago. The same non-compete, the same productivity formula, the same partnership track suddenly have something to be measured against. 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:
Hospital systems
Academic programs

Then graduation approaches and the algorithm stops. A recruiter calls. The contract has a productivity formula you cannot solve for, a non-compete you cannot evaluate, and a tail-coverage clause nobody explained.
Before you compare salary numbers, see how many physician-owned groups actually exist in your specialty and state. Then negotiate from leverage instead of from gratitude.
You're looking at 53 physician-owned infectious disease practices in Connecticut. I sourced all of them from the NPPES NPI Registry and filtered out everything that doesn't meet the standard of independent physician ownership. Hospital systems, academic centers, staffing agencies, and corporate-acquired practices are not on this list. Each entry includes the practice address, phone, website, and NPI number. The coverage spans 15 cities statewide.
Most physicians looking for infectious disease opportunities in Connecticut start with a recruiter or a job board. Both of those sources mix hospital-employed roles with genuine private practice opportunities, and they rarely disclose ownership structure upfront. This page does one thing differently: it filters for physician ownership using the federal NPPES registry. That's it. The result is 53 practices you can contact directly, without a middleman deciding what you're allowed to see.
Connecticut's physician-owned infectious disease directory lists 53 practice locations across 15 cities.
None of the infectious disease practices listed in Connecticut carry a PE-Backed or Corporate-Acquired flag. All listings in this directory are physician-owned independent practices verified through NPPES.
Practices span 15 cities including Bridgeport, Bristol, Brooklyn, and Derby.

“You spent fifteen years on a map. Then someone took it away.”
Daniel Aragón, MD, MBAThere are 53 physician-owned infectious disease private practices in Connecticut, 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.
Connecticut doesn't have physician-owned independent infectious disease practices in this directory. Infectious disease care here runs through hospital systems like Yale New Haven Health, and Hartford HealthCare, and Trinity Health Of New England.
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.
Private ID practices in Connecticut with strong outpatient models often combine: HIV primary care (with Ryan White Title III grant funding where applicable, which supports the practice financially for uninsured patients), travel medicine (yellow fever vaccination, malaria prophylaxis, pre-travel consultations, largely cash-pay), and outpatient antibiotic infusion therapy (OPAT) for patients completing IV antibiotic courses at home or in the office. These outpatient revenue streams reduce dependence on hospital inpatient admissions volume.
