About The Position

Legacy Health is seeking OB/GYN Hospitalists to support established groups at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center and Randall Children's Hospital. Additional coverage opportunities are available throughout the Legacy system in Portland and surrounding areas, including Legacy Salmon Creek Medical Center, Legacy Silverton Medical Center, and Legacy Mt. Hood Medical Center. At the primary sites, OB/GYN Hospitalists support the inpatient needs of the Legacy Medical Group (LMG) Maternal Fetal Medicine service and act as perinatal extenders. They collaborate closely with MFM providers, who offer 24/7 coverage (not in-house). The OB/GYN Hospitalist also provides backup for the LMG Midwifery Practice, covers unassigned labor/triage patients, assists private practice OB/GYN colleagues (e.g., C-section assisting), and handles variable coverage for Emergency Department gynecologic consults and emergencies. Both locations feature Level IV NICUs and are crucial for high-risk pregnancies in their communities. Dedicated in-house Anesthesia is available 24/7 at both sites. Local academic OB/GYN and Family Medicine residents provide 24/7 coverage at LEMC, with medical student rotations at both sites. There are no clinic responsibilities.
