There are 18 physician-owned cardiovascular disease practices in Vermont, vetted against the NPPES NPI Registry. Hospital-employed, government, and academic positions are excluded.
Before you accept a hospital offer in Vermont, see how many physician-owned cardiovascular disease groups already exist. The answer is 21, and it changes everything you can ask for in negotiation.
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 cardiovascular disease 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 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 18 physician-owned cardiovascular disease practices in Vermont. 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 8 cities statewide.
Here's why I built this. When I was looking at private practice opportunities, I couldn't find a single resource that separated physician-owned practices from everything else. Job boards don't do it. Recruiter databases don't do it. So I built it from the NPPES registry. Whether you're finishing training, thinking about a lateral move, or exploring partnership-track positions in Vermont, this gives you a filtered starting point that actually tells you who owns what.

Daniel Aragón, MD, MBAThere are 18 physician-owned cardiovascular disease private practices in Vermont, 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.
Vermont's only physician-owned cardiovascular disease practice in this directory is Champlain Valley Cardiovascular Associates, PC in South Burlington (2 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.
Buy-in refers to the purchase of an ownership stake in the practice entity after completing an associate track (typically 3-5 years). The buy-in price is usually calculated as a multiple of earnings or a formal valuation. In cardiology, buy-in amounts vary widely based on practice size and ancillary ownership. Confirm whether partnership grants true equity (voting, distributions) or only economic participation. Have a healthcare attorney review the buy-in agreement before committing.
