You will work directly with our vascular team which is staffed by 4 attending surgeons, 4 full time physician assistants, 2 fellows, surgical residents and students in training. You will work closely with the team to provide comprehensive care to vascular surgery patients.

There is an opportunity to participate in research, if desired.
The position is full time, 40 hours per week. The time will be divided between 4 days. Minimal weekend work. No call, nights, or Holidays.
The Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions are steeped in tradition. The Johns Hopkins Hospital has been ranked nationally in the top five of the U.S. News & World Report Best Hospitals rankings for more than 20 years. The Department of Surgery is the birthplace of modern surgical training. The Division of Vascular Surgery and Endovascular Therapy similarly has a long history of excellence. William Halsted described the first aneurysm repair in 1912, Bertram Bernheim wrote the first textbook on vascular surgery, and G. Melville Williams originated the retroperitoneal approach. Under the former guidance of Dr. Bruce A. Perler, now Vice Chair for Clinical Operations in the Department of Surgery, and leadership of the current Division Chief, Dr. James H. Black, III, the division has grown to include multiple services lines which expand on the interdepartmental, collaborative efforts which Johns Hopkins is known for. Each service line affords unparalleled exposure to difficult vascular diseases, as well as their surgical management. We are known for our breadth of both open and endovascular experience.
