Team Health is actively recruiting the best and the brightest to join our program at HCA Houston Healthcare Kingwood in Kingwood, Texas, 20 miles Northeast of Houston, Texas. Be part of a collaborative practice environment where you are responsible for patient admissions and cross coverage calls from the floors. Enjoy a block schedule that allows you the ability to balance your career with your personal lifestyle interests.

TeamHealth is a physician-led, patient-focused company founded over 40 years ago by doctors, for doctors. Our success and stability as an industry leader in hospital medicine stems from the ingenuity, dedicated teamwork and integrity of our people.

At night our nocturnists handle admissions, cross floor rounding, and teaching/working with the residency students. There is an in-house intensivist program and rapid response team to run codes. The current EMR is Meditech across all HCA Houston Campuses. To be considered for this opportunity physicians must be board certified or eligible in internal medicine. 2023 new grads will be considered!
