Hematology/Oncology Physician

Part-Time Flexible Schedule Work from Anywhere Rural Texas

The Rural Health Hub (RHH) is seeking a Tele-Hematologist/Oncologist to provide high-quality specialty care to adults with hematologic and oncologic conditions in rural and medically underserved Texas communities.

This flexible, part-time role allows the hematologist/oncologist to work remotely while trained clinical staff are physically present with the patient. The physician will evaluate and manage a broad range of benign and malignant hematologic conditions, provide oncology follow-up and survivorship care, and collaborate with local primary care providers, hospitals, laboratories, infusion centers, surgeons, radiation oncologists, and regional cancer centers.

RHH uses a hybrid-telehealth model that combines remote specialty expertise with in-person clinical support.

Local medical assistants, nurses, or advanced practice providers assist with:

• History, medications, vital signs, and symptom assessment

• Physical examination components

• Assessment for pallor, bruising, bleeding, lymphadenopathy, edema, and other relevant findings

• Connected examination technology when appropriate

• Coordination of CBCs, coagulation studies, chemistry panels, and other laboratory testing

• Coordination of imaging, pathology review, and other diagnostic studies

• Medication reconciliation and treatment monitoring

• Referrals, follow-up care, and communication with the local and regional care teams

This model allows hematologist/oncologists to provide meaningful longitudinal specialty care while using local and regional resources for laboratory testing, imaging, transfusions, infusions, procedures, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, hospitalization, and higher levels of care when needed.

Experience in telemedicine, rural healthcare, benign hematology, cancer survivorship, chronic hematologic disorders, solid tumor oncology, or oncology follow-up is welcomed but not required.

• Part-time, flexible telehealth schedule

• Recurring weekly clinic blocks available

• Work remotely with no relocation required

• Local clinical personnel present with patients

• Scheduling, technology, and care-coordination support provided

• Opportunity to expand hours as the network grows

• Bring hematology and oncology expertise to communities with limited specialist access

• Help patients receive appropriate specialty care closer to home

• Work remotely while maintaining meaningful longitudinal patient relationships

• Practice within a coordinated care model rather than isolated telemedicine

• Help rural clinicians manage complex blood disorders and cancer-related conditions
