Diagnostic Radiologist | Partnership After One Year
New Orleans, LA
Position Highlights:
- Generous time away from day one. Roughly 10 weeks off are built into year one through a predictable annual shift model, and you have flexibility in how you share your schedule and vacation.
- Join a well-established, independent, physician-owned radiology group. The group is the exclusive radiology partner of a leading Greater New Orleans health system, a relationship that spans three decades.
- The practice is hospital-based across multiple campuses, with full-modality imaging, single-seat reading across sites, and an Epic-integrated workflow. Biopsies are not required.
- You work weekdays, and late shifts are shared evenly across the group. Weekend coverage comes up less than once a month, and a contracted service handles overnights.
- The team is collegial and fellowship-trained, and it is known for transparency, fairness, and exceptional retention. New radiologists attend weekly group meetings and have a voice in operations from the start.
- There is a genuine path to partnership after one year with essentially no cash buy-in, and you move to full partner compensation at that point. Leadership opportunities are opening as the group expands and senior partners transition. A motivated radiologist can also take ownership of the evening swing shift.
Compensation & Benefits:
- Documented earnings for top-producing partners exceed $1M annually.
- Year one is a guaranteed base salary. After that, pay moves to a straight production model with overhead well below typical private-group levels.
- You can earn more through optional bonus reads, compensated extra and double shifts, and weighted credit for weekend and holiday coverage.
- A substantial sign-on bonus is offered.
- Malpractice, health, dental and vision coverage are fully funded, and partners can join the retirement plan.
- Relocation support is provided.
- CME tuition, society dues and meetings are covered.
Qualifications:
- Degree: MD or DO
- Certifications: Board Certified or Board Eligible in Diagnostic Radiology
- Licensure: Louisiana medical license, or eligibility to obtain one
- Skillset: General diagnostic reading across modalities. An MSK interest is highly valued, and all subspecialties are considered.
- Experience: New graduates are welcome and encouraged to apply.
- Sponsorship: Visa sponsorship is not available.
About the Community
- Top Ranked Location: New Orleans is internationally recognized for its cuisine, music, architecture and culture.
- Major Metro: The Greater New Orleans area has roughly one million residents, offering big-city amenities with a strong neighborhood feel.
