Fellowship-Trained Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Surgeon — Physician-Owned Boutique Practice (Lafayette, LA)

We’re looking for a fellowship-trained Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Surgeon to join a physician-owned, boutique practice in Lafayette, Louisiana. This is not your typical high-volume, multi-specialty group—our practice is subspecialty-focused, emphasizing clinical autonomy, individualized care, and close collaboration among fellowship-trained surgeons.

What makes this practice different:

• Physician-owned and boutique — built around subspecialty excellence rather than volume.
• Foot & Ankle–centered model with a high-touch patient experience.
• Collaborative team of highly skilled clinicians.
• Focus on quality outcomes and physician decision-making.
• Opportunity to pursue equity partnership.

What you’ll do:

• Evaluate and manage a wide range of foot and ankle issues, from acute injuries to complex chronic conditions.
• Perform advanced foot and ankle surgical procedures.
• Create individualized, patient-centered treatment plans.
• Work closely with a multidisciplinary team to achieve the best outcomes.
• Keep accurate, timely clinical documentation.
• Contribute to practice development and growth initiatives.

Who we’re looking for:

• MD or DO from an accredited medical school.
• Completed orthopedic surgery residency and fellowship training in Foot & Ankle surgery.
• Board certified or board eligible in orthopedic surgery.
• Eligible for medical licensure in Louisiana.
• Strong interpersonal and communication skills.
• Comfortable working in a high-touch, subspecialty practice and committed to patient-focused care.

Compensation and benefits:

• Competitive base salary with productivity-based incentives.
• Equity partnership track.
• Malpractice insurance coverage.
• CME allowance and retirement plan options.
• Generous paid time off.
• Relocation assistance, if applicable.

If you want to practice in a collegial, subspecialized environment with a focus on quality care and clinical autonomy, this position in Lafayette offers a compelling opportunity.
