General Adult Psychiatry Opportunity in Metro Eastern PA!!
Our position is an employed position with a very busy practice. You need to be board eligible (and eventually become board certified) or board certified already. It is primarily an outpatient opportunity with inpatient work out of hospital. The call is 1:6 weekends where you will be expected to round on all patients at hospital and do consults. Week night coverage in done on rotation, but ED admissions are done by a caseworker who screens and does the intake, you would only get called and very rarely need to come in.
We compensate fairly with a bonus structure available along with extra compensation for taking weekend call at another hospital – if you want – it is not required. We have a rich benefit plan that includes malpractice, medical and dental coverage, vacation, CME allowance, etc.
