Job Description

Last Update: 2/22/22

We have an immediate need for a Locum General Surgeon in Beautiful Nebraska!

We are launching the growth of a new acute care general surgery division. The mission of the Acute Care Surgery service is too provide clinically excellent and compassionate care to all patients with acute surgical emergencies, traumatic injuries an critical illness. As a nationally certified Level 1 Trauma Center, we are capable of providing the highest level of comprehensive care for patients of all ages with complex traumatic injuries. We offer life-saving care for severely injured patients 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Our center sees 2500 trauma related admissions per year and 1400 emergency general surgery admissions per year. The successful candidate must be an MD/DO (or equivalent degree) who is board certified or board eligible in Surgical Critical Care, have completed a fellowship in Surgical Critical Care and demonstrate a strong interest in teaching residents and medical students.

We are currently looking for double boarded surgeons in critical care and general surgery. They would be covering between 3 of our services Critical Care, Trauma, and Emergency General Surgery (EGS). We will break down at night to one of our own surgeons on either the Critical Care Surgery service (CCS) or the Trauma/EGS service. We are looking to fill the need for just the one additional night shift that we’ve added to be able to split these 3 services up overnight for better coverage. The shifts run 4 pm to 7 am so they are 15 hours in length and this is all in-house coverage. We will need to cover 7 nights a week likely for up to a year while we work to fill multiple positions here.

Please inquire for more details!
