Your clinical practice at Sheridan Memorial Hospital will center around providing comprehensive ENT care with a balanced mix of surgical procedures and office-based treatments. Unlike the production pressure common in many hospital-employed positions, your schedule is designed with appropriate time for thorough patient interaction—featuring 30-minute appointment blocks that allow you to develop meaningful patient relationships and deliver care without feeling rushed. This thoughtful scheduling approach creates a practice rhythm that promotes both clinical excellence and personal satisfaction.
The patient population you'll serve spans all ages, from pediatric cases requiring ear tubes and tonsillectomies to adults needing sinus procedures and hearing evaluations. As the hospital's primary ENT specialist, you'll develop longitudinal relationships with your patients rather than experiencing the fragmented care common in larger medical centers. Your typical week balances clinical and surgical demands with dedicated time for procedures, creating a diverse practice that leverages the full spectrum of your ENT training.
Your call responsibilities reflect the practice's commitment to physician well-being, with a manageable schedule that supports work-life balance. The current arrangement involves 10 days of call per month. Unlike the burdensome call schedules common in many hospital settings, this position typically requires in-person response only 2–3 times monthly, allowing you to maintain personal commitments while ensuring patients receive needed care.
Your practice will be supported by modern equipment and complementary services that enhance your ability to provide comprehensive care. The clinic features dedicated spaces designed specifically for ENT procedures, allowing efficient workflow and optimal patient experiences. Beyond traditional ENT services, you'll have the opportunity to oversee thriving audiology and allergy practices that complement your surgical work and create a truly comprehensive ENT center.
Your practice efficiency is enhanced through collaboration with a skilled Physician Assistant (PA) who can manage appropriate aspects of patient care under your supervision. This team approach allows you to focus your expertise where it's most needed while ensuring patients receive timely, comprehensive care for routine needs. Unlike solo practitioners who must personally handle every aspect of care, this collaborative model creates space for you to maintain clinical excellence without sacrificing personal time.
