EM Physician with Pediatric Fellowship Needed for New Residency Program

Bayhealth Medical Center, based in Dover DE, is embarking on an ambitious GME program and is looking to add Faculty to an EM Residency Program that will accept residents starting in July 2023. Our FM and IM programs started in July 2021 with 8 FM and 13 IM residents; General Surgery will start in July 22 and an application has been filed for an EM program to start in July 2023. This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated leader to have input and make an impact building a program from the ground up. The program is scheduled to support 6 Emergency Medicine residents per year.

Bayhealth Medical Center comprises Bayhealth Kent Campus, Bayhealth Sussex Campus, a free-standing ED in Smyrna and a free-standing ED under construction and scheduled to open in Harbeson in 2023. Total ED volume is currently 110,000 visits per year. Bayhealth Emergency Physicians are employed by the hospital and have a base hourly rate, rvu incentives, quality incentives, sign-on bonus as well as a full benefit package including relocation, medical, dental, vision, PTO, 401K with a match and more.

Preferred candidates must be BC/BE in Emergency Medicine and have completed a Fellowship in Pediatric Emergency Medicine. Bayhealth does not have a separate Pediatric Emergency Department so candidates must be comforatble seeing adult as well as pediatric patients. Involvement in presentations and other scholarly activities would be a plus.

Delaware is one of the fastest growing states in the US and Bayhealth is looking to grow to serve the future healthcare needs of our communities. February 2109 saw the opening of the new Sussex Campus; this 138 bed hospital replaced the existing Milford Memorial Hospital.
