Permanent Medical Director Opportunity in West Columbia, South Carolina

An established and well-supported hospital in West Columbia, South Carolina, is seeking a GI hospitalist for a brand-new inpatient gastroenterology service.

The position offers the chance to shape clinical operations, establish protocols, and collaborate closely with a local GI group that is transitioning away from inpatient responsibilities while maintaining outpatient follow-ups.
