Medflight Jobs in Indiana (NOW HIRING)

Our organization is actively looking for a Board Certified/Board Eligible Pediatric Hematologist to become part of a thriving pediatric hematology oncology practice located in South Bend, Indiana.

The selected physician will collaborate with a dedicated team comprising two board-certified pediatric hematologist-oncologists and a nurse practitioner. This care team is further supported by a highly skilled nursing and administrative staff.

Our program provides care for infants, children, adolescents, and young adults facing blood disorders and cancers. The oncology segment typically manages around 30-40 patients undergoing active treatment at any given time, along with a substantial population of patients who are off therapy.

Each year, the practice receives approximately 200 new hematology referrals and provides care for around 80 children diagnosed with sickle cell disease, in addition to many others with chronic benign hematologic conditions.

The physicians primarily operate in an outpatient clinic while also covering inpatient services, supported by a robust pediatric hospitalist team. Call duties are shared equally among the physicians.

Our program maintains strong collaborative relationships with regional academic centers, frequently partnering with them to enhance patient care.

This position offers a unique chance to engage in clinical program development and deliver care to children in a medically underserved area. Opportunities for involvement in limited medical student and resident education, as well as clinical research, are also available.

In close collaboration with Riley Children's Health, our pediatric oncology physicians work alongside a large team of specialists to ensure that every possible treatment option is accessible to our patients.

Our organization is the only designated children's hospital in the region, providing care for children with a diverse range of medical and surgical conditions referred from over 20 hospitals across Southwestern Michigan and Northern Indiana.

Our exceptional team includes various pediatric subspecialties such as:

We also have child life specialists, diabetic educators, dietitians, and social workers on our team. In 2017, we inaugurated a new children’s hospital, a $46 million investment featuring a 109-bed facility with 101,530 square feet, essential for serving thousands of children and families across a 22-county area.

Our Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) is actively engaged in several national multicenter quality improvement initiatives, including the Improving Pediatric Sepsis Outcomes program and the Solutions for Patient Safety initiative.

We have affiliations with the Indiana University School of Medicine at Notre Dame and the Memorial Hospital Family Medicine Residency, allowing for the education of residents, medical students, and supervision of postgraduate trainees.

Memorial Hospital, with 737 licensed beds, boasts over 600 physicians across more than 50 medical specialties and has received numerous accolades for its quality patient care, including being ranked #4 in Indiana by U.S. News & World Report in 2019.
