Neurologist Needed

Baptist Health Medical Center in North Little Rock (BHMC-NLR), in conjunction with Arkansas Health Group (AHG), is seeking a BE/BC Neurologist to practice inpatient and outpatient neurology. The recruitment need is growth related.

Currently there are two neurologists practicing at BHMC-NLR. The plan is to recruit a third physician and move to a 7 on/7 off model. The ideal candidate will be willing to work with residents as BHMC-NLR has established two residency programs on the campus. Twelve Family Medicine residents and Twelve Internal Medicine Residents began their training in July 2019, along with Twelve Transitional residents. Additionally, a Psychiatry Residency began in July of 2022 accepting 4 residents per year. 

BHMC-NLR is the third largest hospital in the 11-hospital Baptist Health system at 248-beds. AHG is the employed physician group for Baptist Health. This opportunity provides a base salary as well as quality incentive and production based bonuses. 

Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock became part of Baptist Health in 1962 and has served patients at its current location off Interstate 40, Exit 156, since 1999. The nationally recognized, faith-based hospital has 250 licensed beds and offers comprehensive services delivered in an inviting, less institutionalized setting.

Baptist Health Medical Center-North Little Rock’s Emergency Department is a Level III trauma center, which means it has demonstrated the ability to provide advanced trauma life support (ATLS) prior to the transfer of patients to a higher-level trauma center.

Baptist Health Rehabilitation Institute-North Little Rock as well as two medical office buildings – Medical Office Building in North Little Rock and Springhill Medical Plaza – are located on the campus, allowing patients and providers convenient access to additional health care services.
