A leading faith-based health system in central Illinois is excited to announce an exceptional opportunity for a Urologist to join their team. This role is perfect for a general urologist, with strong support available for those with subspecialty interests. Particularly exciting to the practice would be a Reconstructionist (with fellowship training and interest in urethral reconstructions) or a Urologic Oncologist (to support volume in kidney cases/partial nephrectomies and radical cystectomies).
Hospital Highlights:
- This medical center has grown into the fifth-largest in Illinois, with nearly 5,000 employees and 600+ patient beds. It is the area’s only Level 1 Trauma Center.
- Major teaching affiliate of a nearby college of medicine.
- The health system's cancer institute is a new, state-of-the-art facility offering research spaces, exam rooms, laboratories, a pharmacy, and a diagnostic center.
Position Highlights:
- Join a team of 4 urologists, 8 highly skilled APPs (who take first call during the day and provide support on weekends), and two private surgical techs who handle robots and cysto cases.
- For experienced providers, you will walk into a busy and productive practice with immediate volume. Fantastic leadership and mentorship are available for new grads who would like to grow into a niche or have a proctor for large, complex cases.
- Robotic experience is preferred but not required. Available for use: three da Vinci robotics, 2 Moses lasers, Holmium laser, CO2 laser, Ultrasound probe for the robot, and the capability to do fusion biopsies.
- Call is 1:6 weekends, and general urology for call is expected from all providers.
- Referral support from a large multi-specialty group and robust hospitalist group.
- Generous compensation package plus incentives, loan repayment options, training stipend, paid relocation package, and sign-on bonus.
- Benefits include PTO, paid holidays, a generous amount of sick time per year, paid occurrence-based malpractice, CME, association membership dues, health, life, and dental insurance, and a retirement plan.
- There is interest in developing a Urology Residency program in the future. A Program Director candidate would be responsible for laying the groundwork to launch this program in collaboration with the local college of medicine, which is one of four campuses that make up the nation’s largest public medical school.
