Practice Details

This is a growth position created to address the increasing demand for endocrine care throughout Southwest Florida. Local endocrinologists have transitioned to concierge practices or closed insurance panels, creating significant patient access delays. As a result, ENT surgeons are currently managing many thyroid-related medical conditions while patients wait for specialty care.

The incoming physician will focus primarily on:

• Thyroid disorders
• Parathyroid disorders

The practice is intentionally designed around thyroid disease management. Routine management of diabetes, pituitary disorders, adrenal disorders, osteoporosis, obesity medicine, and reproductive endocrinology is not expected.

Clinical responsibilities include:

• Outpatient evaluation and management of thyroid and parathyroid disorders
• Collaboration with five experienced ENT surgeons
• Coordination of care with an established healthcare system referral network
• Clinical teaching of Internal Medicine residents
• Assistance with endocrine rotation development and curriculum planning

An experienced nurse practitioner currently performs thyroid biopsies using onsite ultrasound equipment.

Practice Environment

• Independent private practice partnered with Medical Group
• Four clinic locations within 5–10 miles of one another
• Dedicated medical assistant and nursing support
• AI-assisted documentation through the EMMA electronic medical record
• Opportunity to add advanced practice provider support as patient volume grows
• Immediate access to an established referral base

Patient volume will grow quickly based on physician preference and scheduling pace due to the substantial unmet demand in the community.
