The Division of Plastic Surgery at the MetroHealth System, a major teaching affiliate of Case Western Reserve University, seeks a BC/BE Plastic Surgeon to join a busy academic practice as a full-time provider.
The Division of Plastic Surgery cares for a broad range of patients in the reconstructive, aesthetic, and congenital spheres. This established position involves the management of all aspects of plastic surgery including breast reconstruction, hand surgery, skin cancer reconstruction, extremity salvage, head and neck reconstruction, and cosmetic surgery. Candidates must have a commitment to academic surgery, with an interest in the teaching of medical students, residents, and fellows. Fellowship training or expertise in Microsurgery is preferred but all qualified applicants will be considered.
The MetroHealth System is a county-owned, nationally recognized academic medical center and tertiary referral center with 731 licensed beds. The System includes a Level One Trauma Center, the regional Burn Center, 19 satellite offices, and 3 ambulatory surgery centers. Plastic Surgery has a presence at 5 of the outpatient offices and laser facilities are available at three locations.
MetroHealth will complete a new, state-of-the-art hospital in 2021.
Position Requirements & Benefits
Applicants must be board-certified and eligible for licensure in Ohio.
The MetroHealth System offers a competitive compensation package, health insurance, paid time off, disability insurance, an academic appointment to the Case Western Reserve School of Medicine faculty at a rank commensurate with experience, CME opportunities, malpractice coverage, an impressive pension program with a generous employer match through the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS), and an excellent environment for faculty members to develop strong clinical, research (basic and clinical), and quality improvement programs.
As a Plastic Surgeon, you have a number of opportunities to consider. However, few will offer you the personal and professional satisfaction and the opportunity to work in a safety-net academic medical system that is leading the way to a healthier community through service, teaching, discovery, and teamwork. You would join a division of 5 attending surgeons, an Advanced Practice Nurse Practitioner and a dedicated service nurse. There are outstanding opportunities for mentorship and collaboration within the Division and beyond. We have exceptional clinicians with extraordinary hearts, and we are looking for more to join us.
