Play in the Pines of East Texas! Cardiothoracic Surgeon Opportunity in Longview!

As the incoming surgeon, you'll join a large 100+ provider multi-specialty group that includes the majority of PCPs and the largest Cardiology group in the community. The arrival of a strong CVS two years ago who brought state-of-the art treatments for all types of heart, lung and vascular diseases has more than doubled the open heart volume (OR cases up 188%) and there is now the need for another BC/BE surgeon with a strong work ethic and strong interpersonal skills. ED call will be 1:5 with the clinic call anticipated at 1:2. You'll enjoy a brand new office space on the hospital's new cardiac floor.

The hospital offers a fully accredited Open Heart Surgery program with a da Vinci robot as well as new a cath and special procedures room. Cath volume recently grew from 100/mo to 150/mo, with expectations of 200/month within the year. The Heart and Vascular Unit has 23 beds and opened in 2011. Plus the hospital is nearing the completion of a huge expansion project that will nearly double the hospital's size (to 230 beds) and add a second dedicated Open Heart room in their Surgical Suite (which will grow to 16 rooms). The successful candidate will be an energetic, BC/BE surgeon with interest/ability in cardiac, thoracic and vascular procedures.

In return for your training and expertise, practice is offering a very lucrative base salary with profit sharing potential and strong benefits. Benefits may include: a sign-on and/or commencement bonus, relocation, licensure and CME expenses, medical education stipend, medical education loan repayment assistance and more. However the best benefit offered is its location! Longview is nestled in the lush lake and pine forest region of Northeast Texas. The availability of outdoor activities combined with a growing economy, low cost of living and excellent schools are just a few reasons people who live here, love it here! [Register to View]
