  • Proximity to a hospital for cases requiring advanced care.
  • Minimal travel to additional facilities.

  • An extensive benefits package, including malpractice and tail coverage.
  • Relocation assistance.
  • Opportunities for involvement in teaching, research, and enhancing patient access.
  • A fully integrated electronic health record system (Epic).
