Due to a relocating doctor, an academic institution in the Midwest is seeking a neurosurgeon to join one of its community hospitals. This is a busy clinical position with an academic appointment, and the position affords the possibility of developing a lucrative spine practice. Videoconferencing capability exists with the ability to work very collaboratively with the main campus and allow interested candidates to join conferences.

This hospital is a Level III Trauma Center with 350 beds and the only hospital in the city. Within their 12-county catchment area, there is a major opportunity to capture more patients due to little or no neurosurgeon presence (outside of their practice) in their target market and between the metropolitan areas. There is a lot of volume to be captured and the new neurosurgeon will be able to ramp up quickly based on outmigration data.

This community hospital serves as a tertiary referral center and teaching hospital for the region. The hospital is a leader in the Health system and in the state for quality outcomes in a number of categories, including patient safety and stroke care. The hospital embraces state-of-the-art technological developments, having undergone expansive renovations in the last few years with more than $8 million invested in facility upgrades. The Cancer Center provides medical and radiation oncology expertise and the latest clinical research to treat all types and stages of cancer.
