Job description

We are seeking a skilled and board-certified Radiologist (MD/DO) to join a critical access hospital through a locum tenens opportunity. This Radiologist role is designed for a dedicated physician who values patient care and is committed to providing high-quality diagnostic imaging. This locum tenens position offers the flexibility of an ongoing assignment with the opportunity to work within a supportive environment. The hospital is equipped with modern technology and a comprehensive support staff to ensure smooth workflow and optimal patient outcomes.

The Radiologist will primarily interpret a variety of imaging modalities, including plain films, ultrasound, CT, and MR, with a focus on delivering accurate and timely reports. Additional light interventional radiology (IR) procedures may be required, such as upper GI, thoracentesis, paracentesis, abscess drainage, and thyroid-related interventions. The role is best suited for candidates who are comfortable with a diverse caseload and who can adapt to the needs of a rural healthcare setting.

The hospital uses the EPIC electronic medical records (EMR) system, ensuring efficient documentation and communication with the rest of the healthcare team. The Radiologist will be supported by a full staff, including technologists and administrative personnel, to facilitate daily operations and patient care. Although partial remote work may be available, onsite presence is preferred to maximize patient interaction and support continuity of care.

This is a Monday to Friday position, from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, with no weekend or on-call responsibilities, allowing for a stable and predictable work schedule. The average daily caseload is approximately 10 reads per hour, providing a balanced mix of diagnostic studies and hands‑on procedures. Credentialing for this locum tenens Radiologist position typically takes 60-90 days, and all travel arrangements are covered to ensure a seamless transition for the selected candidate.

Candidates must hold an active California medical license and a valid DEA registration. Board Certification in Radiology is required. This opportunity is ideal for Radiologists seeking flexibility, exposure to a variety of imaging studies, and the chance to work in a collaborative rural hospital environment. Working in Central California can provide a rewarding experience, combining professional growth with the opportunity to serve a diverse community.
