We are a progressive practice utilizing Cutting Edge Surgical Laser, digital radiography, digital dental radiography and therapeutic laser.  We have multi-parameter monitoring equipment, and a full in-house Abaxis lab suite.  Because we believe fully in the importance of diagnostics we have a modern, in-house ultrasound with a trained technician to perform ultrasounds and echocardiograms on site.

Ideal candidates for this position should enjoy collaboration and a team environment.  Our doctors work well together and enjoy helping each other talk through cases and sharing ideas.

While we prefer a minimum of two years experience in a high touch hospital, focused on exceptional medicine and customer service, we would be open to motivated new graduates as well.
