Schedule and Patient Volumes:

Work-life balance is very important to us, therefore we are very flexible with scheduling.  Our full-time Doctors typically work around 32-35 hours per week, and we are able to offer you the same, less, or more.  We are open from 8 am-7 pm (Mon-Thurs), 8 am-5 pm (Friday), and 8 am-12 pm on Saturday.  The bulk of our schedule is split into shifts.  You have the option to work full days or 4-5 hour half-day shifts.  We do require that you join in on our Saturday rotation, which is approximately 1 shift per every 3-4 weeks.  No Sunday hours, no emergency, and no holidays.

 We are a busy hospital and almost always have a full day of patients. We prefer appointments but do see the occasional walk-in.   With our patient volumes, a new doctor will easily be able to build their clientele.

 About the area:

Our town is perfect for the outdoor enthusiast—perfectly set between two ski resorts, and only an hour away from Snowshoe Mountain (the premier ski resort in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic and an IMBA Bronze Mountain Biking Destination).  Snowshoe Mountain was home of the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup Finals and it is right in our back yard. Elkins also offers a plethora of hiking, fishing, and camping.   We are also surrounded by infinite biking possibilities boasting a variety of terrain.  In addition to the endless outdoor offerings, our region is rich with history and art, museums, historic buildings, and one-of-a-kind: pottery, jewelry, paintings, wines, craft beers, and locally owned eateries.
