A busy general pediatrics group of four doctors is seeking a BC/BE pediatrician for a full-time position to replace a retiring physician in Montgomery, Alabama. Pediatric Healthcare (PHC) is a thriving, physician-owned practice established 40 years ago and well respected in the tri-county area. This position uniquely allows the new physician to assume the care of a mature practice of patients, with the opportunity for partnership in two years. Excellent compensation package and future income potential. There is a $20,000 signing bonus and moving expenses are covered.
Over 90 percent of families carry private insurance. The PHC office is a stand-alone, up-to-date facility that provides 4 exam rooms per doctor, and a private office for each doctor. Other office features include a laboratory, hearing/vision room, minor surgery room, spacious patient waiting areas (divided sick and well), and comfortable clerical area for patient reception and business operation. The practice website is PedHealthcare.com.
The doctors work a four-day week and every fourth weekend on call. The call rotation allows for a Friday off every fourth weekend. A Call Center staffed by nurses at Children’s Hospital in Birmingham handles all nighttime calls. The doctors provide inpatient care for their newborns in the Well Baby Nursery. There is excellent neonatal coverage at the hospital, including attendance at deliveries as needed, allowing the PHC doctors to focus on outpatient care. Subspecialty availability includes Peds GI, Peds Allergy, and Peds Cardiology in Montgomery, with all other services provided by Children’s Hospital in Birmingham just 1 ½ hours away.
Montgomery is the second largest city in Alabama with a population of 200,000, and is the state capital. It is the home of both Maxwell and Gunter Air Force Bases.
