Our congenial medical team is dedicated to ensuring their expertise benefits the 28,000 people seeking care at the Hospital annually. They serve within a community that embraces its physicians with open arms.
Immediate opportunities for physicians in the Hospital and surrounding community include:
GP/Anaesthetist
We are doing some succession planning: Are you looking to scale back or semi-retire in the next few years? Our OR runs 5 half days/week with a second OR opened occasionally for scopes. The OR is used by our full time General Surgeon and visiting ENT, Urology and Dental surgeons. Surgical cases include: hernia repair, appendectomy, carpal tunnel, gallbladder, bowel resection. Call arrangements flexible with the current GP Anaesthestist. We do not do Ortho or OB so out-of-hours surgery is rare. Majority of calls are ER backup or ground ambulance transfers. No hospital overhead. Generous, daily, HOCC stipend plus your FFS billings.
