Position Highlight:

The General Surgery Clinic is an exciting, fast-paced Ambulatory Clinic within Nebraska Medicine. The Lauritzen Outpatient Center will be the primary location for this position. This clinic operates just a little differently than most Ambulatory Clinic settings. In this position, you will be working closely with a small core team of MAs and CNAs that assist multispecialty teams that come to this location to see their patients. Appointments for their patients will be primarily pre and post-op care. You will play an essential role in helping their patients achieve their optimal healthcare goals.

If you are someone that likes to work in a clinical setting, where each day looks a little different, this might be the position for you! You will be exposed to specialty practices such as Trauma, Plastics, Colon and Rectal and much more. Our clinic is open Monday though Friday, 8:00am to 4:30pm. Why should you choose to apply for this position? The best care starts with seeing the best team. Our team is the most comprehensive General Surgery team in the region. If you ask anyone on the team, what we do well in our General Surgery Clinic, they would all say, "Teamwork and the willingness to jump in and support one another without hesitation." Does this sound like what you have been missing in your career? Please apply to find out more about joining the General Surgery Team!

These are just a few physicians you would be working closely with in General Surgery!
