Mt. Clemens, Michigan
Position:  Trauma Ortho Surgeon

MCRMC - Mount Clemens Regional Medical Center
Date Posted: 4/08/08

Mount Clemens Regional Medical Center (MCRMC) is a 288-bed acute care hospital.  More than 460 physicians and 2,000 employees work at the hospital, making it one of Macomb County’s major employers.  The hospital’s teaching program, with its high standard of excellence, now attracts hundreds of top students from across the nation.  With the level of care provided to patients and its exceptional reputation, MCRMC has attracted first-rate surgeons from across the country.  These experts are offering technologically advanced options, including open-heart surgeries, neurosurgery, and numerous orthopedic procedures. MCRMC is proud to be one of a handful of hospitals in the Midwest to have an orthopedic oncologist on staff.

The renovated Emergency Department, dedicated in 2003, offers 24 private exam rooms, seven open treatment areas, and three trauma rooms.  In 2002 and 2004, a six level parking garage was added as well as the Ted B. Wahby Cancer Center.  In 2005, a 151,000-sq.-ft. surgery center was completed.  The center features world-class amenities along with state-of-the-art technology and has eight huge operating rooms, 16 pre-operative rooms, and nine recovery rooms.  The center uses the “Unicell” cart system, which contributes to the 14-minute turn around time between operative cases.  The surgical staff is also proud to have a 100% on-time record.  The hospital is one of the few in Michigan to use the da Vinci Robotic Surgical System, a revolutionary device that allows surgeons to operate with greater precision using smaller incisions.

The new trauma orthopedic surgeon will join four orthopedic surgeons in private practice.  Call is 1:7, with the orthopedic residents taking first call for the emergency department.  The opportunity to teach is available as well as the option to invest in the ambulatory surgery center in Utica.  For optimum convenience, the clinic is located across the street from the hospital.  As the practice continues to grow at a rapid rate, the group is looking to add several more surgeons over the next few years.  This is due in part to the group having an excellent relationship with the community and hospital.   An exceptional compensation and benefit package is being offered.  Contact Jill Washburn at 800-243-4353 or jwashburn@strelcheck.com for more information.
