Orthopaedic Surgeon (Shoulder, Hip, Knee) at Bega, Australia, Health Service
South East Regional Hospital in Bega, New South Wales, Australia, is seeking an experienced orthopaedic surgeon to join their team. The hospital has recently received a 5-year AOA accreditation for one trainee, typically at the 3rd or 4th year level, and currently hosts a Transition to Practice trainee.
The department has two surgeons specializing in hip and knee arthroplasty, with one also covering shoulder arthroplasty. They are looking for a permanent surgeon to take over a hip and knee practice from a retiring colleague. The on-call roster is 1 in 4 weeks, primarily covering medium-intensity trauma cases. Major pelvic or spine fractures are referred to Canberra, the nearest larger center.
If a candidate cannot relocate permanently but is interested in assisting with trauma coverage while establishing a practice in the city, part-time trauma coverage is also an option. The hospital has experienced challenges with FIFO surgeons doing elective surgeries, so permanent relocation is preferred.
If you have a junior colleague or fellow interested in starting a position in this area, please share this opportunity with them.
