Bayhealth is seeking Board Certified/Board Eligible Trauma Surgeons (General Surgery + Surgical Critical Care) to join and help expand our growing trauma program within a high-volume, financially strong health system.

This is your opportunity to step into a well-supported, hospital-based surgical team while playing a meaningful role in shaping the future of trauma care in Central and Southern Delaware.

  • High-volume ED with 56,000+ visits annually at Kent Campus

  • Collaborative environment with general and specialty surgeons

  • Teaching opportunities with our General Surgery Residency
  • Be part of a mission-driven, academically engaged health system that values growth, mentorship, and innovation
  • Largest health system in Central and Southern Delaware
  • Affiliations with Penn Cancer Network and Penn Orthopedics

Compensation and Benefits that Deliver

  • Malpractice coverage
  • Generous PTO + holidays
  • 401(k)/403(b) with match

As a clinician, you have no shortage of opportunities. At Bayhealth, we offer something more meaningful—a place where your expertise is valued, your voice is heard, and your impact is felt every day.

We’re honored you’re considering joining our team.

Why Choose Bayhealth? 

When you join Bayhealth, you’re not just stepping into a role, you’re becoming part of a connected, collaborative medical community. Our strong provider networks help you build strong relationships across the health system and within the community, supporting both your professional growth and patient reach.

You’ll also have the opportunity to contribute beyond clinical care. Whether through committees, quality improvement initiatives, or leadership programs, your perspective can help shape the future of care we deliver.
