Job Description
General Orthopedic Physician Opportunity - Deaconess Clinic
Henderson, KY location
Build a high-volume practice quickly with strong referral support, dedicated OR access, and a clear path to exceeding $1M+ income.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Immediate Volume: Step into an established referral network with strong demand across a large regional service area
- Established Walk-In Clinic staffed by experienced advanced practice providers - new patient opportunities.
- Efficient Practice Model: Integrated system with Epic across inpatient and outpatient settings
- Balanced Schedule: Mix of clinic, OR, and manageable call.
- Support to Grow: Access to rehab, urgent ortho care, and primary care feeders.
- Dedicated OR block time at very close acute care hospital.
- Opportunity to participate in partially physician-owned ambulatory surgery center.
- Consistent APP support with entire practice, outpatient and inpatient
- Partner hospital is very experienced in orthopedic care and surgery techniques.
- Supported by Orthopedic Traumatologists
Practice Overview

- Call: 1:4
- Inpatient Coverage: ~7 days/month
- Opportunity to ramp up quickly.
What Your Day Looks Like
- Outpatient clinic with consistent referral flow

- Collaboration with primary care and rehab services to maintain continuity of care.
- 5-10 cases per week average (annual average ortho does 350 cases per year)
- Call coverage supported by APPs as physician wishes.
Compensation
- $800,000 guaranteed (Year 1) + productivity opportunity
- Many physicians exceed initial guarantee based on volume.
- Productivity model after Year 1 with additional quality incentives
