Infectious Disease Private Practices in Georgia
Before you accept a hospital offer in Georgia, see how many physician-owned infectious disease groups already exist. The answer is 119, and it changes everything you can ask for in negotiation.
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.
A physician who can see that there are 40 physician-owned infectious disease groups within 50 miles walks into a contract negotiation with completely different leverage than one who assumes the hospital is the only option. Non-compete radius, buy-in terms, tail coverage, all of it becomes more negotiable once you actually know what is around you. The Real Contract course walks you through every clause that matters.

About this directory and the Georgia infectious disease market
You finished infectious disease. Now what?
Then PGY-Final hits, and the page is blank. A recruiter calls. A contract lands in your inbox with a 50-mile non-compete, an opaque productivity model, and a signing bonus you do not understand the strings on.
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.
What other resources point to in Georgia
There are 119 infectious disease practices in Georgia on this page, and every single one is physician-owned. I built the list from the NPPES NPI Registry, then layered on business data from DataForSEO for practice websites, phone numbers, and descriptions. Hospital-system practices, government clinics, academic positions, and corporate-acquired groups didn't make the cut. The listings cover 22 cities across Georgia.
Most physicians looking for infectious disease opportunities in Georgia 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 87 practices you can contact directly, without a middleman deciding what you're allowed to see.
The Georgia infectious disease market in detail
Georgia's physician-owned infectious disease directory lists 87 practice locations across 20 cities. The largest groups include Infectious Disease Consultants (3 locations), Doreen Lee, MD (3 locations), and James Ian McMillen, MD (3 locations).
None of the infectious disease practices listed in Georgia carry a PE-Backed or Corporate-Acquired flag. All listings in this directory are physician-owned independent practices verified through NPPES.
Practices span 20 cities including Athens, Atlanta, Augusta, and Canton.

Frequently asked questions about infectious disease in Georgia
How many Infectious Disease private practices are in Georgia?
There are 87 physician-owned infectious disease private practices in Georgia, verified against the NPPES NPI Registry. All are independently operated. Hospital-employed, government, corporate, and academic positions are excluded.
What does physician-owned mean?
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.
What does the Corporate-Acquired or MSO-Affiliated flag mean?
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.
Inpatient Consulting vs. Outpatient Models in Georgia Infectious Disease Practice
Georgia has 5 physician-owned infectious disease practices across 4 cities. The larger groups include Atlanta Infectious Diseases Specialists (Atlanta), Infectious Diseases Society of Georgia (IDSG) (Atlanta), and Augusta Infectious Disease Associates (Augusta-Richmond County).
What is an NPPES-verified practice?
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.
What outpatient revenue sources do private infectious disease practices in Georgia use?
Private ID practices in Georgia 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.

Key Terms in Physician Contracts
Compensation Formula
The contractual method used to calculate physician pay. Common models include guaranteed salary, eat-what-you-kill (collections-based), salary plus production bonus (RVU or collections above a threshold), and equal-share partnership distributions. The formula directly affects income stability, upside potential, and alignment with practice goals.
Partnership Buy-In
The purchase of an ownership stake in a physician practice entity, typically offered after an associate track of 2 to 5 years. The buy-in price is calculated using business valuation, a multiple of earnings, or a formula tied to practice receivables. True equity buy-ins include voting rights and profit distributions.
Without-Cause Termination
A contract clause that allows either party to end the employment agreement without stating a reason, typically with 60 to 120 days written notice. The notice period, post-termination obligations (non-compete activation, tail insurance responsibility), and severance terms are negotiable. Shorter notice periods favor the employer.
Call Coverage
The obligation to provide after-hours or weekend coverage for patient emergencies. Contracts should specify call frequency (1 in 4, 1 in 6, etc.), whether call is compensated separately, and whether the physician takes call from home or in-house. Unrestricted call obligations are a common source of physician burnout.
Credentialing
The process by which hospitals and insurance companies verify a physician's education, training, board certification, licensure, and malpractice history before granting privileges or network participation. Credentialing typically takes 60 to 120 days and must be completed before a physician can bill patients under a new practice or facility.
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
A federal program providing funding to states, metropolitan areas, and clinics to provide care and treatment for low-income people living with HIV who lack adequate health coverage. Ryan White-funded clinics can receive grants that support clinical operations serving uninsured or underinsured HIV patients.
OPAT (Outpatient Parenteral Antibiotic Therapy)
Administration of intravenous antibiotics in an outpatient setting (home, infusion center, or physician office) for infections requiring prolonged IV treatment. OPAT services billed by the managing ID physician generate professional fee revenue; if the practice provides the infusion facility, additional facility fees may apply.
