Full-time Gastroenterologist – New Milford, Connecticut (80 miles from New York City)

Nuvance Health, formerly known as Western Connecticut Health, has an excellent opportunity for a full-time Gastroenterologist at New Milford Hospital in New Milford, Connecticut, located about 90 minutes outside of New York City in Litchfield County. This is an excellent opportunity to build a practice in a brand new multispecialty center located in the hospital, with close proximity to the Hospital endoscopy suite. There will be Physician Assistant support in the office as well as block scheduling in the OR/Endoscopy. The call schedule will be part of our larger employed group at Danbury Hospital, which includes 17 gastroenterologists.  

The ideal candidate will be a board certified gastroenterologist with at least 3 years of post-fellowship training experience, who is used to practicing independently. We offer a highly competitive compensation package, including base salary plus incentives and allowances for CMEs and Dues expenses as well as a relocation stipend. There is also opportunity for a faculty appointment.

New Milford Hospital is a community hospital, serving the residents of the greater Litchfield County area in Connecticut for the past 100 years. Established in 1885, Danbury Hospital is a not-for-profit community hospital providing Greater Danbury area residents convenient access to exceptional care. Danbury Hospital has 371 beds and is a Level II Trauma Center with approximately 70,000 ED visits per year. As teaching hospitals, we are affiliated with the University of Vermont College of Medicine, Ross University, American University of the Caribbean, and Yale School of Medicine. Our Medical Group includes 900+ physicians and advanced practice providers, serving a geographically broad region throughout Western Connecticut and eastern New York.

Located in the foothills of the Berkshire Mountains and close to the border of New York State, New Milford is not far from the NY metropolitan area, about 80 miles northeast of New York City and 60 miles west of Hartford, CT. We enjoy both proximity to New York City culture and access to a wide array of outdoor activities, including hiking, biking, fishing, and boating in state and regional parks and preserves. Filled with quaint towns, the region offers a variety of excellent housing and school options. Boston, New York City, New Haven, and Hartford are easily accessible via train and car.  

Nuvance Health serves 1.5 million residents across New York and Connecticut and includes more than 2,600 aligned physicians, 12,000 employees, seven hospitals (Danbury Hospital, New Milford Hospital, Northern Dutchess Hospital, Norwalk Hospital, Putnam Hospital Center, Sharon Hospital, and Vassar Brothers Medical Center), a large network of primary care and specialty practices, and multiple affiliated organizations.
