Job description

Harness Precision, Embrace Purpose - Become a Surgical Physician Assistant in the Innovative Heart of Silicon Valley

Overview

In the operating room, every moment resonates with a unique rhythm - a blend of precision, trust, and communication. As a Physician Assistant dedicated to surgical care, you're acutely aware of the vital role you play : not just in the sterile environment of the OR, but also at the bedside, during follow-ups, and in the myriad details that facilitate true healing.

We invite a dedicated, meticulous PA to be a vital part of our surgical team in a full-time capacity. Here, you will collaborate closely with skilled surgeons and compassionate nurses, ensuring that each patient's surgical journey is smooth, fully supported, and prioritized around their well-being. Whether you are preparing a patient for their pre-operative education or skillfully passing instruments in the heat of the procedure, your work will make a significant impact every day in a place where your abilities and dedication are genuinely appreciated.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform comprehensive patient assessments, including physical examinations and thorough reviews of medical histories.
  • Assist in evaluating and diagnosing surgical conditions through the interpretation of diagnostic imaging and laboratory results.
  • Work collaboratively with surgical teams to formulate and implement patient-centered surgical treatment plans.
  • Provide vital intraoperative support, which includes preparing operating rooms, ensuring correct patient positioning, and assisting with the handoff of surgical tools during operations.
  • Deliver outstanding pre-operative and post-operative patient care, which encompasses medication administration, wound management, discharge planning, and patient education.

Required Education

  • Master's degree from an accredited Physician Assistant program.
  • Completion of clinical rotations with a surgical focus is strongly preferred.
  • Certifications Required

  • Valid and unrestricted PA-C certification.
  • Current BLS and ACLS certifications.
  • State licensure (or eligibility) to practice as a Physician Assistant.
  • Preferred Skills

  • Solid understanding of surgical principles and adherence to sterile techniques.
  • Proven capability to interpret diagnostic tests and contribute to intricate clinical decisions.
  • Exceptional communication and interpersonal abilities.
  • Capacity to thrive in high-pressure environments, especially during surgical procedures.
  • Compassionate bedside manner with profound respect for patients' dignity and autonomy.
  • Benefits of Joining Our Team

  • Attractive salary and performance-related incentives.
  • Comprehensive health benefits including medical, dental, and vision coverage.
  • Generous paid time off along with CME reimbursement.
  • A supportive team culture with access to cutting-edge equipment and resources.
  • Opportunities for career growth in a vibrant and expanding healthcare environment.
  • Be Part of the Surgical Journey

    Embarking on a career as a Surgical Physician Assistant extends beyond technical capabilities - it involves stepping forward with clarity when uncertainties arise and providing reassurance when a patient's trepidation clashes with their hopes. You will not only be hands-on in the OR but also a calming presence in corridors, elucidating diagnoses, guiding families, and empowering patients to take their next steps.

    Your collaboration will include everything from minimally invasive laparoscopic surgeries to challenging inpatient procedures. Nevertheless, your involvement will carry on post-operation - throughout wound checks, recovery discussions, and long-term care planning. Your insights matter. Your clinical perspectives are valued. Your voice holds significance in the smallest and most pivotal decisions.

    Join a community that values your input, recognizing that each successful operation hinges upon collective effort - defined by trust, humility, and unwavering care.

    Discover Your Lifestyle in Silicon Valley

    Outside the hospital doors, you'll find yourself immersed in a vibrant scene that goes beyond just living - it thrives in celebration. Welcome to Silicon Valley , a place where innovation thrives amongst sprawling tech campuses and vibrant personal connections. Here, the landscape is diverse, with world-class restaurants and coffee shops just a stone's throw from beautifully maintained parks and scenic trails.

    Spend your weekends exploring the breathtaking vistas of nearby mountains or relaxing at local artisan markets, with a craft brew or gourmet food truck waiting just around the corner. The sense of community here is palpable, where smiles are genuine and conversations are meaningful - a place that resonates with the warmth of its residents. And the cherry on top? With no state income tax and a booming job market, your take-home pays off significantly, allowing you to indulge in hobbies, adventures, and all that life has to offer.

    Be it a sleek apartment with skyline views or a suburban home basking under the shade of oak trees, the lifestyle options are abundant. The rich culture? Unrivaled. The culinary scene? A delightful blend of global influences and local favorites. The locals? An inspiring assortment of innovators, creators, and passionate individuals, all contributing to a fast-paced yet intricate community tapestry.

    Who We Envision for Our Team

    We seek a Physician Assistant who thrives under pressure and embraces high-stakes environments, finding fulfillment in rigorous preparation. A person who listens thoughtfully, supports others, and learns as much as they teach.

    Whether you're just beginning your surgical career journey or you come with years of intraoperative experience, we prioritize your character over credentials. If you possess an agile intellect, steady hands, and a genuine compassion for healing, you will undoubtedly feel at home in our team.

    Let's Collaborate Where Precision Meets Passion

    This opportunity is not merely a position; it's a calling - to empower individuals to reclaim their vitality, restore movement, and return to their lives with renewed vigor.

    Join a cohesive team where every member is valued, every success celebrated, and every patient is treated as an individual rather than just a number. If you're ready to elevate your surgical skills in a region that celebrates both clinical excellence and authentic human connections, we're excited to connect with you soon.
