Wonderful Hospitalist Opportunity in Fredericksburg, TX

Position Highlights:

• As a rural hospital site, we value and engage with the primary care providers and local resources such as skilled nursing facilities and pharmacies. We prioritize our involvement amongst the hospital medical staff with committee participation and collaboration with the other disciplines to provide our patients with the highest quality care possible for their success and safety.
• Our site is small but mighty. Our hospital consists of a med/surg tele unit and an open ICU, predominantly serving as an IMCU. We possess the major specialties, including GI, that provide advanced endoscopy care, such as EUS/ERCP and urology.
• We collaborate with a few teleservices (pulmonary/critical care, ID, Neuro). Our orthopedic surgery joint replacement program is well known, and we assist surgeons with postoperative medical management. The attendings cover the inpatient hospice service, which promotes a heavy focus on advance care planning amongst our team as we often provide continuity in this small community.
• All the sub-specialists straddle clinic and hospital coverage, so we depend on our close communication to limit gaps and expedite the progression of care.
• We assume responsibility for our patients and regularly collaborate through curbside consultations during multidisciplinary rounds, especially when faced with challenging cases.
