Job Details

TeamHealth has an excellent full-time opportunity for a physician to join our Emergency Department team at Georgetown Community Hospital in Georgetown, Kentucky. Are you looking for the best of both worlds? Well, welcome to a place where tradition and progress meet. Georgetown is one of the fastest growing areas in the state, home to Georgetown College and Toyota's largest manufacturing facility outside Japan. Real Estate is booming, and you have the opportunity to practice emergency medicine in a facility with a family-like atmosphere, strong Advanced Practice Clinician support, and plenty of specialty back-up to make your shifts enjoyable. This opportunity is rare since most clinicians have made Georgetown Community Hospital home for years and recently either retired, or moved to a slower pace. We ask that you be board certified or board eligible in Emergency Medicine, Family Medicine or Internal Medicine in addition to current ATLS, ACLS, and PALS certifications. Our newly renovated 15-bed ED has a 25,000 annual patient volume averaging 1.9 patients per hour with low-medium acuity. We provide supportive and well-staffed nursing. Admit to your own colleagues with TeamHealth Hospital medicine program. J1 physicians are encouraged to apply!

City Description
Georgetown and Scott County, Kentucky, are ideally located just 10 miles north of Lexington, the Horse Capital of the World. The city is a blend of old and new, and Georgetown is noted for its profusion of historic houses and fine antiques shopping. Area back roads offer beautiful horse farms, Irish fieldstone fences, the meandering Elkhorn and Eagle Creeks, and rolling fields of tobacco and cattle. There are small, quaint communities like Stamping Ground and Sadieville. Elkhorn Creek, the inspiration for Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman, is favored by canoeists and fishermen. There are dozens of golf courses in the area, including Cherry Blossom and Canewood Golf Course. Additionally, the University of Kentucky, Transylvania University, Georgetown College, a four-year liberal arts school and Midway College are all located in the surrounding area. With a thriving arts and events calendar, Georgetown continues to be a growing community where tradition meets innovation.
