Fellowship Trained Breast Surgeon for great city

St. David's Medical Center (SDMC) is interested in adding a fellowship trained breast surgeon to its medical staff.  This opportunity will be perfect for a flexible physician interested in helping develop a growing breast program.

St. David's Medical Center has a long tradition of providing excellent women's healthcare services to the Austin community.  It maintains one of the highest birth volumes in the region and has recently refurbished and expanded the 50 bed NICU.  The health resource center, which is located on the hospital campus, houses the only digital mammography unit in Austin and provides stereotactic biopsies and bone density testing.  Additionally, the center is home to the Komen Austin organization and the Breast Cancer Resource Center.  It is staffed with friendly, knowledgeable individuals who take extra care and time with the patients arriving there for testing and consultations.

This is an excellent opportunity to serve the needs of a growing population while affiliating with a top-notch hospital.  The hospital would provide an income guarantee for the first year of practice, marketing allowance, relocation allowance and the services of a practice-set-up consultant. 

Austin has a lot to offer singles as well as families, from downtown loft living to quieter neighborhoods by the lake or in the hill country.  It's a very active and culturally diverse city.  The weather is great and we have excellent schools, fine arts, lakes, all sorts of outdoor activities, festivals year round, and live music every night of the week.  Austin was also just named one of America's 10 "recession proof cities" by Forbes magazine.  You will not be disappointed.
