Busy Private Practice in Bustling Midwest Town Seeking Spine-Focused General Neurosurgeon

A very busy physician-run practice in the Midwest is recruiting a spine-focused general neurosurgeon to join their collegial, established group. The group is hiring due to an upcoming retirement, and the neurosurgeons are working at full capacity. Immediate volume is available, with 250+ cases the first year. The case mix for the general neurosurgery position is 80% spine and 20% cranial. Both experienced neurosurgeons and new grads are encouraged to apply, with mentorship available for new grads.

The group covers four hospitals, but the new neurosurgeon can expect to practice primarily at two locations. The group has a great long-standing relationship with the hospital system. Locations include the flagship hospital (a Level II Trauma Center with 350 beds), a 325-bed Level III Trauma Center, and a 200-bed non-trauma-designated hospital. The health system built a new, $3M stroke treatment suite in August 2023.

Practice Highlights:
• Immediate volume: partners see 350+ cases/year
• Trauma call will be 1:4-5
• 2-3 OR days/week
• Each neurosurgeon has their own APP with an additional APP at each hospital
• Case mix is 80% spine: 20% cranial
• Neurosurgeons on general neurosurgery call typically receive one call/night
• Competitive salary and incentive bonus
• 2-year partnership track
