Seeking a BE/BC Urologist to establish practice in one of the fastest growing counties in the state of Tennessee. Hospital is the sole hospital in a county of over 50,000 residents. This opportunity is an excellent employment opportunity. Covington is located in Tipton County on the Mississippi River approximately one hour north of Memphis, and is one of the fastest growing counties in the state. Population for 2006 from the Bureau of Census is estimated at 57,380, a 12% increase from 2000. Tipton County has been voted the number three safest rural community in America by The Progressive Farmer, an agricultural and country living magazine which has been in publication since 1886. Many people are relocating to County to enjoy the quieter, less expensive lifestyle while still being close to the nearby metropolitan area. Covington has a strong educational system. School options for families include public, private, home, and alternative schools. Recent changes in the public schools have positioned Covington as a leader and innovator in education. A new magnet school is a county school focusing on the arts. College and technical schools are here in town and the University of Memphis and the University of Tennessee - Martin are within an easy drive.
