Nephrologists

South County Health is seeking board-certified or board-eligible adult nephrologists to join its busy South County Nephrology and Hypertension clinical practice.

South County Health is the preeminent resource for health care in beautiful coastal Rhode Island, engaged in community-based initiatives that support health at every stage of life.

Our nephrologists practice all aspects of adult nephrology, including evaluation of AKI, management of CKD, hypertension, acute and chronic dialysis, SLED, and pre/post-transplant evaluation and management of transplant donors and recipients. Our group provides consultative services at two hospitals and two dialysis clinics located within close proximity to our offices in Westerly and Wakefield.

The right candidate(s) should be board-certified in internal medicine, board-certified or board-eligible in nephrology, and have completed a U.S.-accredited nephrology fellowship. Candidate(s) will not have to wait to build a practice and will inherit a full patient schedule from day one. In return, they will enjoy a robust compensation package that includes competitive base salary with generous bonus structure, full medical, dental, and vision coverage, malpractice coverage, 403(b), six weeks paid time off, CME reimbursement, and educational leave.  

In joining us, the successful candidate will become a member of the South County Medical Group (SCMG), a comprehensive network of more than 60 expert specialists and primary care healthcare providers offering a continuum of care for patients. The group promotes collaboration through the use of shared electronic medical records.

South County Health has received numerous distinctions for patient care and safety, including a 5-star rating on HCAHPS scores, a 5-star rating by CMS for overall hospital quality, and straight As for hospital quality and patient safety by The Leapfrog Group. Our worksite wellness program was recently recognized as one of the top fifty such programs nationally.

Now celebrating 100 years of service to southern Rhode Island, South County Health offers an exceptional opportunity to provide your patients with the best care possible while enjoying a healthy work-life balance and all the lifestyle benefits that come with our picturesque coastal community, including amazing four-season living with the ocean and beaches just minutes away and convenient proximity to Newport, Providence, Boston, and New York City.
