Orthopedic Surgeon - General Orthopedics

Stamford, CT / Westchester, NY

A well-established, rapidly growing surgical group (25+ years in business) is seeking a General Orthopedic Surgeon to help build a premier, full-scope orthopedic platform in the Northeast.

Compensation highlight: Competitive base + significant bonus potential tied to collections, including participation in ASC facility revenue streams — which can materially increase total earnings versus most health-system employed models that typically compensate only on the professional fee side.

This is a rare opportunity for a Surgeon who wants more than a traditional hospital-employed role. The organization has already built the infrastructure—ambulatory surgery centers, patient acquisition support, employer partnerships, and operational resources—needed to drive high-volume outpatient orthopedics. They now need the right Surgeon to serve as the platform’s “front door” orthopedist and help lead the next phase of growth.

If you’re excited by innovation, ASC-based orthopedics, and the chance to shape a growing platform alongside Total Joint, Spine, and PM&R/Pain colleagues, this could be the opportunity you’ve been looking for.

Why This Opportunity Is Different
Most orthopedic surgeons spend years fighting for OR time, navigating hospital bureaucracy, and trying to build referral volume. Here, much of that work is already done.


You’ll have access to:
• Modern ASC infrastructure with efficient scheduling and dedicated surgical teams
• Built-in cross-referrals with Total Joint, Spine, and PM&R/Pain
• Direct-to-employer bundle partnerships and established referral channels
• Full operational support (scheduling, staffing, supply chain/equipment planning)
• Meaningful compensation upside tied to both professional and ASC-related revenue streams


The Opportunity
As the General Orthopedic Surgeon for the platform, you will:
• Provide broad-based surgical and non-surgical orthopedic care across the full spectrum of MSK conditions
• Perform a wide range of outpatient orthopedic procedures in an ASC setting, including:
– Shoulder and knee arthroscopy (rotator cuff/labral, ACL/meniscus)
– Upper/lower extremity fracture care and fixation
– Hand/wrist procedures (carpal tunnel, trigger finger, related cases)
– Foot/ankle procedures (bunion/hammertoe, ankle arthroscopy/fusion)
• Evaluate and triage patients (surgical vs conservative pathways) and perform office procedures (injections, aspirations, reductions, splinting/casting)
• Collaborate with orthopedic subspecialists and participate in care coordination/case conferences
• Build and maintain referral relationships


Requirements include:
• MD or DO; completion of an ACGME-accredited Orthopedic Surgery residency
• ABOS Board Certified or Board Eligible
• Active, unrestricted New York and Connecticut medical licenses (or ability to obtain) and DEA in good standing
• Demonstrated proficiency across multiple orthopedic areas (sports/arthroscopy, upper/lower extremity, fracture care)
• 2+ years post-residency experience in general orthopedics (exceptional fellowship-trained candidates considered)
• Comfort operating in a high-volume ASC environment


Preferred (not required):
• Fellowship training in Sports Medicine, Hand/Upper Extremity, or Foot & Ankle (while maintaining broad scope)
• Multi-site outpatient/ASC experience, referral-building track record, interest in sports coverage


Compensation & Benefits
• Competitive guaranteed base + significant productivity upside tied to collections
• Participation in ASC facility revenue streams (can significantly increase total compensation vs professional-fee-only employed models)
• Comprehensive benefits (health/dental/vision), occurrence-based malpractice
• PTO, paid CME time + CME allowance, relocation assistance available
