Physicians will enjoy the support of an established health system, strong referral relationships, and a collaborative medical staff environment.

Position:
• Hospital-employed opportunity
• Competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits package
• 8 infusion beds within the hospital's cancer center, integrated into your practice
• Epic EMR + AI Scribing
• Established regional referral network
• Opportunity to launch and lead rheumatology services
• Optional teaching opportunity: compensated rotations as a hub site for an osteopathic medical school

The Community:
• Welcoming, family-friendly town with a revitalized downtown, local restaurants, boutiques, and year-round events, recently spotlighted on a popular home renovation TV show.
• Affordable cost of living with access to beautiful historic homes and charming neighborhoods.
• Convenient access to larger metropolitan areas, regional airports, Gulf Coast beaches, and outdoor recreation.
• Ideal for physicians seeking a strong sense of community, short commutes, and an excellent quality of life.
