The Temiskaming Hospital is looking for a full-time general surgeon to join our team! The Temiskaming Hospital is a 70-bed facility located on the shores of Lake Temiskaming, about 1.5 hours north of North Bay.  It’s paradise for the outdoor enthusiast with skiing, skating, tubing, hiking, ice fishing, and snowmobiling in the winter and swimming, boating, hiking, camping, ATVing, and relaxing by the water in the summer.  Though the City is remote, it still offers everything you need including some big box stores, shopping, health and dental care, great schools, recreational activities, and so much more. 

You would be part of our OR team which includes 3 GP – Anesthetists, an amazing OR team of nurses, GP Surgical assistants readily available to you, and one FP-OSS responsible for c-sections in the region.  Your clinic would be situated in the hospital.  Discounted rent is provided and can include reception staff, internet, cleaning, dictation services, OR booking, utilities, and any other services you wish to request.  There is the possibility of getting surgical equipment that meets your interests or sub-specialty and training for the OR team.   The funding model can be Fee-for-Service or join an Alternative Payment Plan for a more blended model.  

The hospital itself has a CT scanner, a very collegial IM, and a supportive team.  There are 29 physicians in the Temiskaming area, who wear a variety of hats including anesthetists, ED physicians, family physicians, obstetrical providers, gerontologists, cosmetics, internal medicine specialists, hospitalists, and surgeons.  We are a teaching hospital and have medical students and residents regularly. 

Temiskaming Shores is a beautiful place to live and work and the medical community here tends to stay once located here.  We have so much to offer, so if you are interested at all, please contact us to discuss the opportunity and plan a site visit.  A new adventure awaits you in Temiskaming Shores!
