You are joining a renowned, integrated healthcare system in New Orleans, Louisiana, as a Pediatric Rheumatologist at Ochsner Children's. This is a unique opportunity to shape and expand the practice alongside Dr. Jane El-Dahr, a highly respected physician who is dually trained in Rheumatology and Allergy/Immunology. As a physician-led organization and the largest not-for-profit employer in Louisiana, Ochsner provides a supportive environment for your career. You will have a significant amount of autonomy in your practice and the opportunity to take on leadership roles within the health system.
This position is designed for a clinician who wants to make a significant impact. With a substantial waiting list of patients and a service line that has seen a 40% increase in unique patients across the system, you will have the chance to serve a community with a high demand for your specialty. The team is actively looking to recruit two providers to alleviate the burden of being a sole practitioner, demonstrating the system's commitment to supporting its physicians.
