Job Description

Fellowship Opportunity in Facial Plastic Surgery & Advanced Rhinologic Surgery

The Department of Otolaryngology/Head & Neck Surgery at our organization in Southern California is on the lookout for a fellow specializing in Facial Plastic Surgery and Advanced Rhinologic Surgery. This one-year fellowship offers a comprehensive, high-volume academic referral practice with a strong emphasis on Nasal Surgery, and we highly encourage participation in mission electives.

Our department is comprised of four full-time, fellowship-trained Rhinologic and Skull Base surgeons, along with three facial plastic surgeons. The fellowship will primarily focus on Nasal Surgery, including extensive experience in endoscopic sinus surgery, anterior skull base procedures, and selected reconstructive rhinoplasty cases. Training will also encompass nasal and facial trauma, making it a vital part of the fellowship experience. While there is an opportunity for broad training in both Facial Plastic and Advanced Rhinology, priority will be given to reconstructive cases over cosmetic and clinic-based procedures.

The fellow will collaborate with faculty at our institution, assisting in various cases. Fellows have the autonomy to select their cases, ensuring a well-rounded, fellow-directed experience. Intraoperative teaching of residents is expected, and participation in a multidisciplinary Skull Base Tumor Board is required. Additionally, fellows are encouraged to engage with standardized reading materials.

The salary for this position aligns with PGY-6 levels at our institution, ranging from $90,000 to $104,000, based on experience and faculty rank. This figure represents the starting base salary and does not include variable compensation or additional productivity incentives, which are subject to departmental compensation plans. Further details regarding compensation will be provided during the recruitment process.

• Our benefits package includes:
• Generous Retirement Contributions
• Comprehensive Medical and Dental Coverage
• Competitive Vacation and Sick Leave
