Careers

OB/GYN details:

• Our OBs need privileges at ECU Health North Hospital (f/k/a Halifax Regional Medical Center) in Roanoke Rapids: https://vidantnorthhospital.com/our-services/the-birthing-center/
• Our office (1381 Medical Center Drive) is right next to the hospital: https://goo.gl/maps/XNmxHXkTdjcyhNoL7
• We are a separate organization from the hospital – our OB/GYNs have privileges and call there, but it is not a hospital practice. We are 501(c)3 private corporation with a patient-majority board of directors and designated as a Federally Qualified Health Center.
• OB/GYNs have one day per week surgery, the rest in outpatient clinic, with 4 hours of designated administrative time per week. 25-35 patients per provider per day in the outpatient clinic.
• The mix of patients (OB vs GYN) fluctuates based on demand/referrals. As of Jan 2020, we have 112 active pregnancies; at one point in 2018, we had 165. Deliveries are approximately 25/month for the group. GYN procedures vary based on referrals – we accept patients from internal and external providers. Clinic days are allocated for GYN. Procedure appointments are 30 – 60 minutes.
• This is a rural, underserved community so there are a number of high risk patients for both OB and GYN
• Call will most likely be 1:2 weekdays (8a Mon – 5p Fri) and 1:3 weekends (5p Fri – 8a Mon) - we have a contracted OB/GYN who covers one weekend per month. We are hoping to extend the call to 1:3 weekdays and 1:4 weekends, but that may or may not happen.
