Emergency Medicine Medical Director in Davenport, FL

Make an impact and lead the launch of a new emergency department from day one. TeamHealth is seeking a board-certified/board-eligible emergency medicine physician and/or medical director to join a brand-new freestanding emergency department in the rapidly growing area of Davenport, Florida. This state-of-the-art ED will provide full-service emergency care to patients throughout eastern Polk County and will be affiliated with Winter Haven Hospital and the BayCare Health System. In this role, you will have the opportunity to work across both the FSED and Winter Haven Hospital.

This is a true emergency department, not an urgent care center. Physicians will manage the full spectrum of emergency presentations with comprehensive diagnostic capabilities, laboratory services, imaging, stabilization, and hospital transfer capabilities when admission is required.
