High-Volume Clinical Success Meets the Prestige of Baylor College of Medicine
Baylor College of Medicine is expanding its Section of Gastroenterology & Hepatology and is seeking an Assistant Professor to join its growing program at St. Luke’s Health – The Woodlands Hospital. This opportunity offers the rare combination of immediate clinical demand, an established practice, and a formal academic appointment within a nationally recognized medical school.
The Practice: Immediate Impact, Infinite Demand
You won't be "building" a practice here; you’ll be meeting a massive, existing demand. In an area currently facing a significant shortage of gastroenterologists, you will join an established team of three GIs and a specialized NP.
- Clinical Dominance: Balance a high-end outpatient clinic (brand-new) with inpatient service rotations at a premier 300-bed regional hospital (recognized as a 2025-2026 Best Hospital by U.S. News & World Report)
- Expansion Leadership: Be on the ground floor as BCM scales its academic footprint in The Woodlands.
- Academic Integration: Maintain your edge through trainee mentorship, section conferences, and BCM’s world-renowned collaborative network.
- Career Trajectory: We provide dedicated support for research, Quality Improvement (QI) initiatives, and formal leadership development.
The Setting: The Woodlands, Texas
Consistently ranked as one of the "Best Places to Live in America," The Woodlands offers a lifestyle that matches the caliber of your career:
- Luxury Living: High-end suburban aesthetics with elite public and private schools.
- Nature & Culture: 220 miles of hiking trails and world-class entertainment at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion.
- Proximity: All the perks of a serene, wooded retreat just 30 miles north of the Texas Medical Center.
