Orthopedic Surgery Hand and Upper Extremity Surgeon

Responsibilities

Virginia Mason Franciscan Health’s Orthopaedic and Sports Medicine section is seeking a fellowship-trained Orthopaedic Hand and Upper Extremity Surgeon to join our team of two experienced Hand Surgeons, four Hand PAs, and two Certified Hand Therapists. This well-established practice involves the care of hand and elbow conditions only; general orthopaedic coverage is not expected. As a tertiary referral center for the Pacific Northwest, the practice includes a high volume of bread-and-butter hand and elbow conditions as well as more complex cases. The location is shared between our downtown Seattle campus and a regional medical center, with access to an ASC and a procedure room for wide-awake surgeries. We are known for excellent patient care and highly rated surgical outcomes, covering all adult conditions from the elbow to the hand.

• We will have representation at the ASSH Annual Meeting in Vancouver, B.C. on October 10-11th. Please contact us to schedule an in-person meeting.
