Opportunity for Private Practice Psychologists - Cedar Rapids, Iowa Area

Allegiance Medical Group (AMG) is seeking the right private-practice psychologist to partner with us in providing disability and occupational psychological assessments in the Cedar Rapids, Iowa region.

AMG provides disability examinations for uniformed service members and veterans, as well as occupational and employment-related examinations for law enforcement and other government employees.

A Different Kind of Clinical Work

This opportunity is ideal for an experienced psychologist in private practice who is interested in structured assessment work, predictable expectations, and a collegial, mission-driven environment—without the hectic pace of therapy schedules, insurance panels, or on-call demands.

As an AMG contract examiner, you will be appreciated for your expertise, supported by experienced administrative staff, and compensated through a generous fee schedule. You will work with veterans, service members, and government employees in a professional and welcoming clinic environment, helping ensure they receive the respectful and thorough evaluations they deserve.

If this mission-focused, team-based approach aligns with your practice goals, we would welcome the opportunity to connect.
