Physician - Podiatrist

Description

CHRISTUS Trinity Clinic is seeking an ambitious and skilled Podiatrist (DPM) to join our rapidly growing podiatry service line in Corpus Christi, TX. This extremely high-volume position will be based out of our prominent CHRISTUS Spohn Shoreline location. The incoming DPM will join an established team of two employed podiatrists within the clinic network, providing essential Emergency Department (ED) and inpatient consultation and coverage.

A primary and exciting objective for this role is to partner directly with an incoming vascular surgeon to co-build and pioneer a dedicated Limb Salvage Program. This program is a critical expansion for the hospital, designed to prevent patient delays and capture the high volume of complex South Texas cases that are currently referred out or held up due to local specialist constraints. Clinic days and hours offer excellent scheduling flexibility, and the clinic is located directly across the street from Shoreline hospital. 

Benefits Include:

• Competitive salary guarantee

• Malpractice with tail coverage

• Retirement with employer match

• CME allowance

• Relocation & Sign-On Bonus

• Medical, Dental, & Vision Benefits
