At Dignity Health, part of our mission is to partner with independent practices and groups to deliver care and healing to our communities. Sierra Pacific Surgical, the fastest growing independent surgical practice in Sacramento, is seeking a BE/BC general surgeon to expand its practice and provide exceptional care to patients in the growing Elk Grove/South Sacramento area.

Highlights Include:

  • Collegial family like environment

  • Busy well respected practice

  • MIS training desirable (DaVinci available)

  • Light call - shared coverage (w/ Anesthesia avail. 24/7)

  • Excellent income potential

  • Comprehensive benefits package

  • Seeking experienced or fellowship trained physician.

This is an opportunity to join a single specialty community-based private practice providing service to Methodist Hospital of Sacramento, a Dignity Health hospital.

Built in 1973, Dignity Health Methodist Hospital of Sacramento is committed to providing daily excellence in health care for residents of Sacramento's southern suburbs, including the Elk Grove, Wilton and Galt communities. Methodist Hospital is home to a 158 acute-care bed facility with 1,282 employees, 341 medical staff, and 29 Emergency Department beds. Methodist Hospital also owns and operates Bruceville Terrace – a 171-bed, sub-acute skilled nursing long-term care facility adjacent to the hospital that provides care for the elderly, as well as those requiring extended recoveries.

Methodist Hospital is home to the Family Medicine Residency Program, an accredited and nationally recognized program which provides resident physicians with specialty training in primary care family medicine. Together, the hospital and residency program implemented a ground-breaking curriculum addressing the identification, treatment and assistance of human trafficking victims and created a one of a kind health clinic for victims, the Human Trafficking Medical Home.

This is an opportunity to join a community-based practice affiliated with Dignity Health. In many cases, providers will join an existing single-specialty or multi-specialty medical group (solo options are occasionally available). Physicians in an independent group tend to enjoy both the practice of medicine and the business side of health care. Some benefits of independent practice opportunities include:

  • Exposure to and ability to impact all aspects of business operations associated with your practice

  • Flexibility to adjust work/life balance to meet your personal and professional needs, since you're the one running the practice

  • Choice of joining an established practice or developing a new independent practice

The posted compensation range is a reasonable estimate that extends from the lowest to the highest pay CommonSpirit in good faith believes it might pay for this particular job, based on the circumstances at the time of posting. CommonSpirit may ultimately pay more or less than the posted range as permitted by law.

We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer.
