Job description

TeamHealth has an excellent full-time opportunity for a physician to join our emergency department (ED) team at Centerpoint Health Georgetown in Georgetown, Kentucky. Are you looking for the best of both worlds? Well, welcome to a place where tradition and progress meet. Georgetown is one of the fastest growing areas in the state, home to Georgetown College and Toyota's largest manufacturing facility outside Japan. Real Estate is booming, and you have the opportunity to practice emergency medicine in a facility with a family‑like atmosphere, strong advanced practice clinician support, and plenty of specialty back‑up to make your shifts enjoyable.

We ask that you be board certified or board eligible in emergency medicine (EM), family medicine (FM) or internal medicine (IM) in addition to current ATLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications. Our newly renovated 15‑bed ED has a 25,000 annual patient volume averaging 1.9 patients per hour with low‑medium acuity. We provide supportive and well‑staffed nursing. Admit to your own colleagues with TeamHealth Hospital medicine program. J1 physicians are encouraged to apply!

• Lifepoint facility with an appreciative CEO and administration who has the ED's best interest in all decisions
