Job Description

Pacific Companies Inc. is a full-service, retained recruiting firm with a nationwide presence specializing in placing healthcare professionals in both locum tenens and permanent positions across the United States. Known for its comprehensive recruitment services, Pacific Companies connects qualified medical providers with hospitals, surgery centers, and clinics that require skilled personnel to meet their staffing needs. With a strong reputation for facilitating smooth transitions for healthcare providers, the firm offers dedicated assistance with credentialing, travel, accommodations, housing, and malpractice coverage to ensure a seamless work experience.

The current opportunity is for a General Surgeon to provide coverage at a busy surgery center in Sonora, California. This position entails working 24-hour call shifts from 8 a.m. to 8 a.m. on specific dates in February, with additional dates to be determined. The surgery center specializes in general surgery with a focus on abdominal procedures, offering an excellent chance for surgeons who are experienced and comfortable managing a high volume of cases. While the facility is not a trauma center, the level of care required demands a seasoned provider capable of delivering efficient and effective surgical care. The hospital housing the surgery center was established 12 years ago and continues to serve its community by providing quality surgical services.

This role is ideal for board-certified General Surgeons licensed to practice in California who have comprehensive case logs to demonstrate their expertise. Given the busy nature of the surgery center, candidates should be adept at managing a broad range of general surgery cases with proficiency and confidence. Pacific Companies will support the selected surgeon throughout the credentialing process and provide full coverage for travel, accommodations, housing, and malpractice insurance, making this a highly attractive locum tenens opportunity. Interested candidates should contact Pacific Companies directly for further details regarding scheduling and other specifics of the position.
