Plastic Surgeon Jobs in Santa Rosa, CA : Your Wound Expertise, a Better Way to Practice

No one understands wound healing and tissue management like a Plastic Surgeon. Yet many plastic surgeons spend their careers covering hand and facial trauma call, fighting insurers over reconstructive cases, or carrying the overhead, marketing costs and pressure of running a cosmetic practice. Across the country, plastic surgeons are dealing with falling reimbursements, growing competition from med spas and patients with ever-higher expectations. Skilled Wound Care, a premier national physician group, is hiring Plastic Surgeons in Santa Rosa, CA to work as wound care physicians and lead wound care initiatives in skilled nursing facilities across the area.
