Obstetrics & Gynecology Physician

A physician-owned OB/GYN practice is building the in-house hospitalist program at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center in Los Angeles, CA. The hospital is in the final stages of completing construction of a brand-new facility with brand-new labor and delivery, postpartum and NICU units.

Our team is hiring the founding group of hospitalists to staff the program.

We are offering two tracks for the founding group of hospitalists to staff the program and we invite you to choose the one that fits your life best.

Track 1 Pure Laborist 12 or 24-hour in-house shifts. No clinic and no patient panel to carry home - you work your shifts and you're done. Ideal for physicians who want a defined schedule, concentrated blocks of time off, and the ability to live wherever they want between shifts.

Track 2 Hybrid Hospitalist/ Clinical Practice In-house hospitalist shifts combined with outpatient clinic days at one of our OB/GYN offices in the greater Los Angeles area. Partners will also have a surgical day at minimum every other week. This track is designed for physicians who want continuity with their own patients and a steady OR schedule alongside the predictability and income floor of shift work. Surgical volume and clinic days can be scaled up for the right candidate.
