Job Details: Outstanding Opportunity for General Surgeons in Northeastern Pennsylvania

Description: Excellent opportunity for BC/BE General Surgeons to join a rapidly growing community
Pocono Medical Center is seeking to add BC/BE General Surgeons to its staff. We are proud to offer both hospital employed and private practice opportunities. Additional training in Vascular or Trauma Surgery is a plus.

Pocono Medical Center is a 233-bed Community Hospital that has been transitioning since 2004 into a Regional Medical Center. The hospital recently completed a $54 million expansion project necessitated by phenomenal growth in Monroe County. The expansion includes a new four-story wing-100,000 square feet of additional space-which houses a 41-bed Emergency Department, 10 state-of-the-art surgical suites, a 24-bed Ambulatory Surgery Center, and an improved Diagnostic Imaging Facility. The centerpiece of the facility is the new Heart and Vascular Institute at PMC.

Plans are in progress for PMC to become a Level III Trauma Center in the very near future. In addition, the expansion will continue over the next several years with a main focus in Primary Care, Women's and Children's Services, Surgery, Oncology, Musculoskeletal Services, and Cardiac Wellness.

PMC and the private practice opportunities are located just off Interstate 80, only 75 miles from Manhattan and 90 minutes from Philadelphia. The Pocono Mountains boast spectacular year-round activities including skiing, biking, boating, fishing, hiking, and more than 30 golf courses. The Poconos is a rapidly growing, economical area for both individuals and families.
