About The Position

Surgical Oncologist Patients facing cancer need a surgeon who can turn a complex diagnosis into a clear plan and a safe operation. In this role, you lead the surgical course of care—from first consult through resection, recovery, and long-term surveillance—so people leave with the best chance of cure and the fewest complications. Your judgment in the clinic and the operating room will set the standard for how this program treats complex solid tumors.

Requirements

• MD or DO, board certification or eligibility in general surgery, and fellowship training in surgical oncology or an equivalent complex-oncology focus.
• Active license (or eligibility) and a record of independent operative practice in the tumor types this program treats.
• Demonstrated results on margins, complications, and timely care—not just a list of procedures performed.
• Habit of leading tumor-board decisions and communicating plans patients and referring physicians can follow.
• Comfortable teaching and holding a team to evidence-based pathways.
• Eligible for hospital privileges and required credentialing without restriction that would limit the role.

Responsibilities

• Build and run a high-quality surgical oncology practice that meets agreed volume, access, and patient-experience targets.
• Complete indicated resections with margins, staging, and complication rates that meet or beat program benchmarks.
• Present every complex case at multidisciplinary tumor board and deliver a written plan the team can execute.
• Shorten time from referral to first surgical consult and from decision to operation without compromising safety.
• Reduce unplanned readmissions and return-to-OR events through standardized pathways and early recovery protocols.
• Mentor fellows, residents, or advanced practice clinicians so they can manage routine cases to your standard.
• Contribute outcome data that the program uses to improve survival, quality, and referral confidence.
