Navigating the Clinical Component

A Progressive Approach to Comprehensive Women's Healthcare

Your clinical practice will embrace the full continuum of women's health, from adolescent gynecology through post-menopausal care, with the flexibility to shape your patient mix according to your interests and expertise. Expecting to see 20-25 patients daily in clinic, you'll provide prenatal care, perform deliveries, conduct well-woman exams, and execute both minor office procedures and major gynecologic surgeries. The beauty of AdventHealth's model lies in its adaptability – while some locations like Celebration maintain traditional private practice models where physicians deliver all their own patients, others like Altamont offer complete evening and weekend sign-out to hospitalists, allowing you to truly disconnect from work during personal time.

The patient population reflects Central Florida's remarkable diversity and growth, with a favorable payer mix averaging 45% commercial insurance across the division. At Winter Park, you'll serve one of Florida's most affluent communities with predominantly commercial insurance, while other locations provide opportunities to make meaningful impact in underserved populations through AdventHealth's commitment to accessible care. The system's 15,000 annual deliveries are distributed across multiple facilities, from the 5,500 deliveries at the high-acuity Orlando campus to more intimate community programs with 1,500 annual births, allowing you to choose an environment matching your comfort with complexity.

Clinical Scope and Surgical Opportunities

  • Comprehensive obstetric care including prenatal visits, deliveries, and postpartum management
  • Full spectrum of gynecologic services from routine exams to complex surgical interventions
  • Access to DaVinci robotic surgical systems at multiple campuses (XI and newest models)
  • Minor office procedures including colposcopy, LEEP, endometrial biopsies, and IUD insertions
  • Major surgeries: hysterectomies (vaginal, laparoscopic, robotic), myomectomies, pelvic floor repairs
  • Optional focus areas: minimally invasive surgery, high-risk obstetrics, or GYN-only practice
  • Collaboration with specialized programs in endometriosis, perimenopause/menopause care
  • Integration with MFM for complex obstetric cases and genetic counseling

Revolutionary Team-Based Care Model

What distinguishes this opportunity is the sophisticated integration with midwifery services that enhances rather than diminishes your practice. At locations like Lake Nona, you'll work with four certified nurse midwives who manage routine obstetrics while you provide oversight and handle complex cases – a model that maximizes efficiency while ensuring appropriate medical supervision. This isn't about replacing physician care; it's about practicing at the top of your license, focusing your surgical skills and medical expertise where they create the most value. Some physicians initially skeptical of this model report it transformed their practice satisfaction, allowing them to perform more surgeries and manage complex cases while midwives handle routine prenatal visits and uncomplicated deliveries.

Technology and Support Infrastructure

Your practice benefits from complete Epic EMR integration across all hospitals and clinics, eliminating the fragmentation that plagues many health systems. In-office ultrasound capabilities with dedicated sonographers at major locations mean immediate answers for your patients. The integration with AdventHealth's women's navigation team means patients arrive at appointments prepared and informed, reducing administrative burden and improving satisfaction scores. Access to same-day MFM consultation, whether in-person or via telemedicine, ensures you're never isolated when managing complex cases.

Flexible Call Arrangements by Location

  • Altamont model: Complete evening/weekend sign-out to hospitalists after 7 PM
  • Orlando model: CNMs take first call, physicians second, with hospitalist backup
  • Celebration model: Traditional private practice with personal patient coverage
  • Winter Park/Lake Nona: Hybrid models with shared call pools and hospitalist support

This variation isn't a limitation – it's an opportunity to find or create your ideal practice model. AdventHealth has shown remarkable flexibility in accommodating physician preferences, even creating hybrid arrangements where physicians maintain both clinic and occasional hospitalist shifts for those who want variety.

The infrastructure supporting your practice – from dedicated surgery schedulers to financial counselors who handle prior authorizations – allows you to focus on patient care rather than administrative burdens. With two medical assistants per provider and experienced nursing staff who understand the rhythms of OB/GYN practice, you'll find yourself in an environment designed for both efficiency and excellence. This is modern obstetrics and gynecology at its finest: technology-enabled, team-supported, and flexible enough to accommodate your vision of ideal practice.
