About The Position

The CU Anschutz Division of Medical Oncology is seeking a full-time Hematologist. This team member will be providing healthcare, interacting with professional colleagues in a multidisciplinary fashion to provide comprehensive care as a responsible professional. Primary site of practice will be Highlands Ranch Medical Center (both inpatient and outpatient) with some cross coverage of Lone Tree Medical Center and possibly Cherry Creek Medical Center. There will be inpatient rounding 2-4 days per week at Highlands Ranch Hospital with assistance from an APP. We are looking for a candidate with a strong work ethic who is a team player. We have developed a strong hard-working team who are invested in the program and the patients. We are striving to maintain that energy and value system. The mission of our center is to deliver high-quality, multidisciplinary hematology and oncology care in a highly accessible and patient-friendly manner. We offer cutting edge technology and clinical trials in a community setting. The Highlands Ranch Medical Center is a multispecialty building and offers an on-site infusion center, blood bank, diagnostic laboratory, radiology services (including MRI, CT and PET/CT), a breast center, and multiple specialties including radiation oncology, surgery (general, ENT, breast, urologic, plastics), and gastroenterology (with endoscopy suites). We are connected to a 93-bed hospital and admit our oncology patients with the help of our very capable hospitalist team. This position would focus primarily on hematology, including both malignant and benign hematology. We hope to build a strong relationship with the Anschutz Medical Campus Division of Hematology to help facilitate clinical trials.
