The successful applicant will play a key role in developing a full-service Gastroenterology program at NRGH. Subspecialty training in inflammatory bowel disease would be considered an asset but is not required. Five years or more of clinical experience preferred. The successful candidate will join the current gastroenterologist at NRGH and establish a private community consultation practice. They will work with the 10‑member Division of General Surgery to provide comprehensive GI care to our community. There is no after‑hours on‑call expectation at this time.
