Description: With a target start date of 12/01, we require a Washington license to be in hand at the time of application. The primary responsibility is rounding and assisting with trauma surgeons. Secondary responsibilities will be in the general surgery clinic for post-operative trauma care. Daily shifts are 9-hour shifts from 07:00 to 16:00, with alternating weekends. For the right candidate, the department is open to a combination of 4x10 hour shifts. The setting includes both inpatient and outpatient care. Inpatient care involves a daily census of approximately 10-15 patients. Required procedures include post-operative care, and surgical first assist is desired but not mandatory. Candidates with a hospitalist background excel in this work. Applicants must provide documentation of clinical services performed during the previous 24 months, including diagnosis or procedure, date, and facility. The candidate will work with a trauma surgeon and may collaborate with other surgeons and a PA in the clinic. No solo work is expected. Surgical assist experience is not a requirement.
