Orthopedic Spine Surgeon (Hinsdale, IL)

Genesis Orthopedics & Sports Medicine•Hinsdale, IL

10h•Onsite

About The Position

Genesis was built as the antidote to the systemic challenges faced in spine surgery, such as insurance fights, OR access issues, and referral pipelines with misaligned incentives. We are a full-spectrum MSK platform with 16 clinics across Chicagoland, offering services from surgery to physical therapy, and catering to a diverse patient population from Medicaid to private pay. Our spine patient population is high-volume, underserved, and in need of comprehensive care. Genesis was founded on the conviction that surgery is a last resort, not a revenue strategy. You will have the clinical infrastructure to exhaust conservative care options, including physical therapy, injections, imaging, and pain management, before resorting to surgery. Day one, you will have a full case load, supported by 1-3 APPs, and a partnership-track role with real equity potential for surgeons who are motivated to build and grow within our system.

BC/BE in orthopedic surgery with fellowship training in spine.
Licensed in Illinois or eligible for licensure.
Belief in conservative care first, with a thorough non-operative workup before considering surgery.

Ability to think in systems and understand the coordination required for spine patients (imaging, PT, pain management, surgical planning, post-op rehab).
Mission alignment with providing accessible and excellent care to all patients, regardless of income.
Desire for equity and partnership, not just a salary.
