CommonSpirit Health .
Job Summary and Responsibilities
Virginia Mason Franciscan Health’s Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine section is seeking a fellowship‑trained Orthopaedic Hand and Upper Extremity Surgeon to join our team of two experienced Hand Surgeons, four exceptional Hand PAs, and two Certified Hand Therapists. This is a well‑established practice focused solely on hand and elbow conditions – general orthopaedic coverage is not expected. As a tertiary referral centre for the Pacific Northwest, the practice involves a high‑volume mix of bread‑and‑butter hand and elbow cases along with more complex procedures. The location is shared between our downtown Seattle campus and a regional medical centre, with access to an ambulatory surgical centre and a procedure room for wide‑awake surgeries. The team enjoys a strong reputation for excellent patient care and highly rated surgical outcomes, and covers all adult conditions from the elbow to the hand.
Job Requirements
BE/BC Orthopaedic Hand and Upper Extremity Surgeon, preferably with 3‑5 years of experience; recent graduates will be considered
Interest in the care of elbow conditions
Ability to obtain a medical professional licence in the State of WA
Ability to obtain a DEA with full prescriptive authority needed for specific practice
Orthopaedic Team Details
Our Orthopaedic team includes more than eight Orthopaedic Surgeons, one Plastic Surgeon, three non‑operative Sports Physicians, and fourteen experienced Physician Assistants. Other members include occupational therapy, certified hand therapy, podiatry, physical therapy, nursing, and administrative support. The Center for Upper Extremity Surgery at Virginia Mason Franciscan Health offers centralised, comprehensive care by fellowship‑trained specialists in the treatment of the hand, wrist, forearm and elbow – including fractures, tendon injuries, Dupuytren’s, peripheral nerve compression, and arthritis.
Living in the Pacific Northwest
Seattle offers a mild climate year‑round and close proximity to outdoor activities, waters of Puget Sound and surrounding mountains, as well as thriving city life, cultural activities, and diverse neighbourhoods – giving a broad range of lifestyle options.

Our unique life experiences and backgrounds make our patient care extraordinary. Our diversity fuels our culture of innovation and transformative health care.
