Obstetrics & Gynecology Physician

An independent, physician-owned women's health practice in Chicago's south suburbs is hiring
an Obstetrics and Gynecology physician to join its established team across two outpatient
offices. The practice is deliberately built around a low obstetric volume and a high office and
surgical volume, which shapes both the week and the compensation. Deliveries run at roughly
35 per month across the whole practice, the certified nurse midwife team carries primary call for
uncomplicated vaginal deliveries, and the incoming physician sits on back call rather than being
pulled in on every case.
The distinguishing feature of this seat is the surgical opportunity. The group's founding physician
is one of the leading robotic gynecologic surgeons in the country and is prepared to train an
incoming physician who wants to build a gynecologic surgery practice. For a physician weighing
a minimally invasive gynecologic surgery fellowship, this is the same training exposure without
the fellowship salary: rather than earning $150,000 to $200,000 for a training year, the physician
starts on a base above $300,000 while building surgical volume that then drives bonus for the
rest of their tenure. The call structure supports this as well, with no office hours on call days and
the following Friday off, so the week is built around operating and office productivity rather than
around covering labor and delivery.
