General Neurosurgery Opportunity in the Chicagoland Area

A not-for-profit hospital system outside of Chicago is excited to welcome a new general neurosurgeon to join their group. Join a collegial and well-established group ready to provide mentorship and support. The neurosurgeons are both seeing cases to capacity and are booked for months out. While While the hospital is not a trauma center, as there are no trauma centers in the area, the hospital does see some trauma cases.

This hospital system is made up of four hospitals, and the neurosurgeon will be practicing at the main hospital. The health system includes a vast network of outpatient locations, surgical and rehabilitation centers, and more throughout the region and offers many free programs, special events, and preventative screenings to the greater community as part of their mission.

The hospital system is committed to providing expert medical care by investing in advanced technologies, innovative treatments and specialty trained staff. The hospital utilizes multidisciplinary teams of health professionals and shared governance among the nursing staff for increased collaboration and accountability in patient care. These efforts have led to the achievement of numerous quality awards and accreditations, recognizing our hospitals with consistent excellence in patient outcomes and experiences.
