Medical Oncologist with Certified Lung and/or Head and Neck focus opportunity in Fort Wayne, IN - Parkview Regional Medical Center

Balance of Sub-specialty Oncology, income and lifestyle for those wishing to become regional lung cancer care experts with the Parkview Packnett Family Cancer Institute.

There is a rewarding opportunity for Board Eligible/Board Certified Lung and/or Head & Neck focused Medical Oncologist to join the Parkview Health team and play an essential role in our vision to be the best Regional Cancer Program in the country.  Our recruited physicians will have the opportunity to work in a new, 200,000 square foot state of the art cancer institute located in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Attached to a tertiary regional medical center, our new, state-of-the-art facility opened its doors in June 2018. Parkview Cancer Institute serves the oncology needs for the Parkview Health system - a 2 billion dollar+ not for profit, multihospital health system with oncology cases coming to the institute for specialty cancer care.  New fellowship grads and established physicians are welcomed.

We have a novel clinical model which allows for disease site based management.  We combined our specialists into clinics based on diseases and wrapped the treatments in concierge level care with world class supportive services.

Parkview Packnett Family Cancer Institute enhances clinical care by incorporating a multidisciplinary approach to lung & head neck cancer care involving subspecialized medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, thoracic surgery, interventional pulmonology, and other specialties. We also have a robust research infrastructure and teaching opportunities. 

The cancer institute serves as a tertiary care referral center, and there is opportunity for faculty involvement with IU school of medicine and the residency program as well if there is interest by the physician. Connections to industry for trials and opportunities for cooperative and investigator-initiated research are available and encouraged if there is an interest.  We have had approximately 8% of patients on trial. 

We have a subspecialized innovative model that centers around the disease and patient.  The Parkview Packnett Family Cancer Institute takes pride in cutting edge clinical care and optimal patient experience.  All patients are reviewed at our multidisciplinary Tumor Board, and supported by a robust navigation and supportive care infrastructure.

The clinical model involves working in multi-specialty tumor site teams out of disease focused cancer clinics in our state of the art institute, and predominantly outpatient practice with limited call at a single tertiary hospital.  An excellent blend of compensation, sub specialization and lifestyle.

Our physician-led institute, serving northeast Indiana and northwest Ohio population, empowers our patients and their families to get multi-disciplinary treatment they desire in one single location. We are looking to incorporate new candidates if they are a correct fit.  We have had the opportunity to be highly selective.  We are looking for physicians who are focused on high quality subspecialized patient care, looking to establish their long term career, and can become regional experts.

The Parkview Packnett Family Cancer Institute is a COC accredited comprehensive community cancer center with multiple subspecialty accreditations.

As an employed physician of Parkview Health, you may receive an excellent salary package beyond other tertiary centers.  The benefit program provides a comprehensive array of benefits and services to employed physicians, including, but not limited to, highly competitive salaries plus annual incentive compensation opportunity, commencement bonus, student loan assistance up to $150k, paid relocation, paid malpractice insurance, match retirement contribution plan, flexible spending accounts, health insurance, life insurance, long and short term disability, dues, licensure & memberships, annual physician allowance (for CMEs and other qualified expenses) as well as many other non-traditional benefits.
