About The Position

Surgical Oncologist Cancer surgery is a promise: the right operation, at the right time, with a plan that holds after the incision closes. In this role you will own that promise—leading complex resections, aligning the care team, and turning staging into treatment patients can start without delay. Success is measured in clear margins, safe recovery, and plans patients understand and complete.

Requirements

MD or DO with board certification or eligibility in general surgery and completion of an accredited surgical oncology fellowship.
Independent experience with complex oncologic resections and multidisciplinary treatment planning.
Current license eligibility and a record that supports hospital privileging.
Demonstrated use of outcomes data to change practice, not only to report it.
Clear communication with patients facing high-stakes decisions and with referring clinicians.

Responsibilities

Build a surgical oncology practice that meets or exceeds benchmark rates for margin status, major complications, and unplanned readmission.
Cut time from complete staging to definitive surgery by running a predictable clinic, OR, and clearance pathway.
Chair or co-lead tumor board so every complex case leaves with a documented, evidence-based plan and a named owner.
Convert referring physicians into a reliable network by returning timely consults and shared follow-up plans.
Standardize perioperative pathways that shorten length of stay without raising return-to-OR or infection rates.
Teach residents, advanced practice providers, and OR teams the cases, indications, and handoffs that keep care consistent.
Review outcomes each quarter and retire or revise any pathway that fails patients.
