Physician - General

During these challenging days after the COVID-19 pandemic, Great River Health is proud to be on strong financial footing.  From day one, we had a plan to continue to pay our physicians 100% of their compensation during the pandemic, even though many of them weren't able to continue to work full time for varying reasons.  This is just another reason why our medical staff is proud to be a part of Great River Health.... stability in practice, stability in finance... and working with people who care. 

This is an exciting opportunity with a well established General Surgery group in the regions  premier  independent health system and hospital.
Great River Health has an excellent opportunity for someone looking for an established, turnkey opportunity that offers tremendous stability.  This group enjoys NO local competition, like many rural practices, but isn't in the middle of nowhere, its in the middle of  everywhere  on the banks of the Mississippi River in picturesque Burlington, IA!      

Looking for excellent earning potential or a better work-life balance??  You'll find both here at GRH! Enjoy 1:5  call and 7 weeks off each year.  This well respected practice has an immediate need for a well qualified physician. You'll find a nice balance of patients with wonderful support staff and administration.   This is a busy practice where income potential is very high.  We do much more at this hospital than many people think... don't expect your typcial small, rural type of practice... this feels like a much bigger practice than our population might lead you to believe.  If you like doing scopes, we don't have GI, so you can do as many of those as you'd like!!
