Full-Time Pediatrician Opportunity
If you're an awesome General Pediatrician with a neonatology fellowship or experience who wants to work as a consultant in both clinic and hospital settings, we are a perfect match—because that's exactly what we offer!
Our hospital has a birth rate of roughly 900 babies per year (32w+ gestation). The successful candidate will be a consultant pediatrician and should have experience with all aspects of general pediatrics care including Level II B NICU, high-risk deliveries, inpatient pediatrics ward, and consults from the emergency room. When you're not in the hospital, you'll be found at the clinic where as long as you're providing the expected level of care, you can devise your own schedule. Excellent interpersonal skills and a commitment to an inter-professional care model are essential.
Where on Earth is CKHA?
Located way down at the southern tip of Ontario (but only 3 hours from Toronto and 1 hour to Detroit), Chatham isn't called the banana belt of Canada for nothing. We ranked 27th best in the whole country by Maclean's Magazine—so even if you don't trust us yet, they're a solid source of info.
But wait... Show me the Money!
Very generous remuneration is provided through the Regional Consulting Pediatrics Alternative Funding Agreement and work/life balance will be easily achieved.
Clinic space is shared by a group of pediatricians which ensures manageable overhead costs! Staff, supplies, IT services, EMR, exam rooms, and even private office space are provided within a turnkey office. All referrals come into the clinic and are equally distributed amongst the pediatricians, so you don't have to worry about drumming up business. You just need to show up and get to work!
Call will be 1 in 6 and each day earns a fixed HOCC stipend plus a percentage of billings, paid directly to you. Don't fret, our ER is amazing so call is very light and is shared amongst all pediatricians, regardless of tenure. Sharing is caring!
There are endless ways to supplement your typical practice. Earn some extra dough by becoming an Adjunct Professor with Western University and teach the next generation of medical students and residents your craft.
You'll also have access to Green Shield Canada health and dental group benefits and complementary EAP counseling for your entire family. Generous financial recruitment incentives ($$$) are currently being offered for full-time recruits. Relocation and spousal employment assistance will be gladly provided. From finding housing, childcare, or even a soccer league for your kids, you won't be alone.
Plus, the cost of living here is lower than most areas, so you get to keep more of what you earn. Be wowed by comparing your housing budget on www.realtor.ca to see what you can get in Chatham vs other cities.
