Responsibilities

The Department of Orthopedic Surgery is ranked amongst the top Orthopedic Departments nationwide.

This position will also provide in-patient interactions with post-operative spine patients. This unique role will allow a diverse mix of outpatient and inpatient experiences, as well as autonomous and team-based clinical work.. The selected candidate will join a highly productive complex spine surgery care team. There is potential to participate in research, publications and education depending on the needs of the Department. At this time, after-hours, weekend availability will not be required. This is a clinical role without intra-operative duties.
