  • Monday–Friday 8:00am–5:00pm schedule

  • Option to work 4.5 days per week

  • Call 1:6, with a clear path to improvement

    • Four additional orthopedic hires are planned to join the same call pool

    • Once fully staffed, call improves to approximately 1:9

  • No visa sponsorship available

  • Will consider 2027 candidates for strong fits, with preference for earlier availability

    • 3 full-time Orthopedic Surgeons (Sports, Upper Extremity, Joints)

    • 1 part-time General Orthopedic Surgeon

    • 5 Advanced Practice Providers (dedicated to physicians, not shared across practices)

  • Incoming surgeon would supervise an experienced APP who previously worked with the departing physician

  • Strong referral base and infrastructure to support a busy adult reconstruction practice

Compensation & Benefits

  • $75,000 sign-on bonus

  • $100,000 retention bonus

About the Organization

  • Broad service lines including emergency care, surgery, orthopedics, cardiology, maternity, pediatrics, and advanced imaging

  • Multiple clinics and specialty services supporting regional orthopedic demand

  • Known for stability, long-term physician retention, and community commitment

Community & Lifestyle – Effingham

  • Welcoming, family-oriented community with strong civic pride

  • Quiet neighborhoods, good schools, and a low-stress daily pace

  • Located at the crossroads of I-57 and I-70, offering excellent access to Champaign, St. Louis, Indianapolis, and beyond

  • Serves as a regional healthcare and commercial hub

  • Affordable cost of living, with housing and daily expenses well below national averages
