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.
What this directory does is hand you the page you were missing. Every physician-owned endocrinology group in Louisiana, in one place, so the first contract you sign is not the only contract you ever saw.
I built this directory by starting with the NPPES NPI Registry, the federal database where every medical practice in the country has to register. From there, I filtered Louisiana's endocrinology listings down to practices that are genuinely physician-owned. That means no hospital-employed roles, no academic faculty positions, no corporate-acquired clinics. What you're looking at is 54 independent endocrinology practices across 9 cities in Louisiana.
If you're evaluating a move to private practice in Louisiana, 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.
Louisiana's physician-owned endocrinology directory lists 34 practice locations across 9 cities.
None of the endocrinology practices listed in Louisiana carry a PE-Backed or Corporate-Acquired flag. All listings in this directory are physician-owned independent practices verified through NPPES.
Practices span 9 cities including Baton Rouge, Bossier City, Houma, and Lafayette.
The Directory is step one. The course teaches you what the contract actually says. The lawyer makes sure you sign the right one.
You are already here. 34 physician-owned endocrinology groups in Louisiana, vetted against NPPES.
The Real Contract walks you through every clause that matters: non-compete, productivity, tail coverage, partnership track.
A vetted directory of physician-contract attorneys in Louisiana. The person on your side should be one who actually does this work.
Browse the Directory. Read the contract. Hire the right lawyer. Skip none of it.
“You spent fifteen years on a map. Then someone took it away.”
Daniel Aragón, MD, MBAThere are 34 physician-owned endocrinology private practices in Louisiana, 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.
Louisiana has 5 physician-owned endocrinology practices across 5 cities. The larger groups include Imperial Health Endocrinology (Lake Charles), Louisiana Endocrine and Diabetes (New Orleans), and The Baton Rouge Clinic - Endocrinology (Baton Rouge).
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 endocrinology practices in Louisiana commonly add: DEXA scanning for osteoporosis (technical component revenue), in-house laboratory services (HbA1c, thyroid, metabolic panels with a CLIA-certified lab license), continuous glucose monitor (CGM) supply dispensing, and DSMES (Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support) programs. Each adds revenue beyond E&M billing without requiring new physician FTEs. Ask any prospective practice which of these services are active and how the revenue is distributed.
