Job Responsibilities
14-16 patients per day. Confirmed locum would see more complicated liver and GI cases in addition to new referrals. Our clinic is currently staffed with one full-time provider, a PA-C, and occasional shifts by our employed GI. All standard clinic responsibilities would be expected including pathology review, referrals and answering questions our PA might have- though direct supervision is not a requirement.
In-clinic procedures: Pill Cam (GI locum required to interpret studies), peg tube exchange, Hemoccult test,and Lidocaine injections
