About The Position

Skilled Wound Care, a premier national physician group, is hiring Bariatric Surgeons in Brentwood, TN to work as wound care physicians and lead wound care initiatives in skilled nursing facilities across the area. This no-call Bariatric Surgeon job offers a high-impact surgical career without the corporate red tape. This is a true Monday–Friday surgeon job, so your evenings and weekends belong to you and your family. Bedside procedures are far less physically demanding than long laparoscopic cases with awkward positioning on larger patients, so the strain on your back, neck, shoulders and hands goes down and you can keep practicing for years to come. Direct patient outcomes based on your surgical expertise, not a hospital committee or department hierarchy. Our custom software is designed to slash admin time, so you’re not stuck charting at midnight when you could be home at a reasonable hour.
