Orthopedic Oncologist - Houston, Texas
Our client, the second busiest cancer hospital in the state, has assembled a highly skilled oncology team, including radiation, medical, and surgical oncologists, pathologists, and reconstructive surgeons, to care for patients with bone and soft tissue tumors. The team is currently recruiting to replace an outgoing physician. This is an established and turnkey practice ready-made for the incoming Ortho-Oncologist to continue to lead and grow this niche program.
The team ensures that each patient receives specialized care in an environment rich in collaboration, research, and compassion. They diagnose, treat, and study cancers using advanced techniques and technology. Their physician-scientists are committed to discovering and advancing treatments and cures for their patients. While forging a personal connection with patients and families under intense circumstances, they provide the best possible care while working as a team, guiding patients and their families toward individualized care, support, and resources needed.
Although the Oncology portion is in great need, it would be only 30-40% of the candidates’ overall practice. The other 60-70% of the practice will be the candidates’ Orthopedic specialty training, preferably adult reconstructive surgery (total joints), but with consideration for the spine.
What we’re seeking:
The ideal candidate would be an orthopedic oncologist with dual fellowship, like joints or spine. This orthopedic oncologist can be an academic, Chief of Orthopedic Oncology, or possibly Chief of Total Joints, run a section, and even have the potential for a larger role such as vice chair. If one is a total joint specialist, they could have robust practice. An orthopedic oncologist can run the department and still be in the 90th percentile.
What we offer:
- $1,000,000 potential with RVU production
- Variety of Cases and Autonomy
- Orthopedic Team averages over 20,000 cases per year
- 30-45% Oncology with 55-70% Orthopedics
- A sign-on bonus will be paid according to experience and training
- Professional medical liability insurance included
- CME allowance and CME days vary annually with the budget
- 3 Different Retirement Plans available
