Body Imaging Radiologist
Seven member group in Illinois seeks a fellowship trained MRI/body imager for a partnership track, high volume, very high income opportunity with a hospital based group that also covers a couple of imaging centers. For the right, extremely service oriented radiologist that has what it takes to be part of a very cohesive team, stay until the work is done, and actually look for ways to pick your partners up this is quite an enviable opportunity.
It is a very busy practice that is approaching 200K annual exams with two nearly full-time interventionists. They need radiologic consultants, as opposed to just film readers, who are going to feel comfortable working closely with all referring physicians and helping them to continue to expand as a practice that already has 80% of the radiology business in a city of about 100K population. They enjoy a very strong position within their medical community and with their hospital administration as well as with their referring docs, but it is a result of hard work and realizing the commitment that is required to be the premiere group in the area.
They all share a common work ethic with all of them having been here 4-15 years and this group would be best suited for someone that is looking for a high volume opportunity and someone that understands that means occasional 11-12 hour workdays as well as being available to cover for a partner if there is an emergency. They are all fellowship trained including 2 IR rads, 2 body imagers, 1 MSK, 1 neuro and 1 mammographer. Someone with an imaging-based fellowship able to do body and cancer-type imaging as well would be the ideal candidate.
Their equipment is outstanding including two 64-slice CTs at the hospital as well as two MRIs, one a Philips 3.0 and an open 1.0. They have two fixed PET CTs and their SPECT CT is one of just a few in the U.S. They do cardiac CT and overall are involved with all of the latest and greatest imaging. Another reason for the urgency of their search is the fact that their hospital is building a 50K sq ft oncology center, which houses their second 64-slice CT scanner.
These guys all get along very well in and outside of the hospital. They socialize together, they get along very well and there really aren't a whole lot of groups like this left that are truly this close-knit. They need someone that feels like they can 1. do the work and 2. fit into this cohesive, team-oriented philosophy. There is no tiered aspect to their partnership and you can expect one year to partnership, or perhaps even less for a radiologist with practice experience and recent fellowship training. Their income is amongst the top 2-3% for rads in the U.S., but that is not the foremost reason they hope people want to consider them. They want someone who fits in with their practice philosophy and wants to come join them to put down roots in the community with plans to stay long term.
They do employ a nighthawk service from 11 p.m. until 6 a.m., but being short-handed right now they have been utilizing it a bit more lately. Vacation is completely variable and you can take as little or as much as you want. It is all adjusted for and fairly distributed with regard to partnership income. One partner takes only two weeks and another takes 14-15 weeks. The maximum they allow is 16 weeks, and the average partner takes 8-9 weeks. It is very flexible group in that regard and they could not be more stable. They have been practicing radiology in the community as a group for 30+ years and that usually means that the retired original partners recruited well and the current partners are serving the referring physicians above and beyond expectations. One year to partnership for experienced radiologists, two years for residents/fellows.
