Job description

The University of Kansas Health System (TUKHS) and the Department of Surgery at the University of Kansas Medical Center are seeking a board‑eligible/board‑certified academic surgeon. This is a full‑time faculty position requiring fellowship training and an interest in General and Acute Care Surgery. The Division offers a high‑volume clinical environment supported by a Level I Trauma Center and an ACS Verified Center for Emergency General Surgery, with approximately 2,800 trauma admissions and nearly 2,600 emergency general surgery patient encounters annually. Faculty benefit from a collegial, team‑based practice model and opportunities for academic involvement through teaching, research, quality improvement, and program development.

Qualified candidates will have completed fellowship training in Surgical Critical Care or Acute Care Surgery and demonstrate a strong commitment to the full spectrum of acute care surgery, including trauma, emergency general surgery, and the elective surgical management of complex patients. Candidates should possess excellent clinical skills, a collaborative and patient‑centered approach to care, and a strong interest in supporting the academic mission of the Department through education, research, and community outreach.

Responsibilities include active engagement in clinical, translational, or outcomes‑based research within the field of General Surgery and Acute Care Surgery; collaboration across disciplines to advance innovative research initiatives; contribution to peer‑reviewed publications and presentations; and a pivotal role in education of medical students and mentorship of General Surgery residents across inpatient, outpatient, and operative settings. Teaching, curriculum development, quality improvement, and fostering the next generation of academic surgeons are highly desired.

Required Qualifications
  • MD/DO or equivalent
  • Board Eligible/Board Certified in General Surgery and either Acute Care Surgery or Surgical Critical Care
  • Eligible for medical licensure in Missouri and Kansas
Benefits and Compensation
  • Competitive compensation package
  • Generous retirement contribution
  • Relocation assistance
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance
  • Generous annual CME and professional development allowance
  • LTD/STD and life insurance
  • Professional liability coverage
