Bring Your Surgical Expertise to One of the Most Vibrant Cities in the Country
Overview
There is something singular about a surgical team that clicks — where every movement is intentional, every handoff is fluid, and every patient walks out of recovery feeling genuinely cared for. If you have experienced that kind of synergy and want more of it, this opportunity was built with you in mind.
We are seeking a talented, motivated Physician Assistant to join a high-performing surgical team in a full-time capacity. In this role, you will be woven into the fabric of patient care from the moment a surgical plan is established all the way through recovery and beyond. You will work alongside experienced surgeons and a dedicated clinical staff who believe that great outcomes are never the result of one person — they are the product of a team that communicates openly, supports one another unconditionally, and shows up with full presence every single day.
If you are the kind of PA who thrives in the OR but also finds deep satisfaction in a meaningful conversation with a nervous patient before their procedure, you will feel right at home here.
What You Will Be Doing
- Perform thorough patient assessments encompassing complete physical examinations and in-depth review of medical histories and surgical risk factors
- Interpret diagnostic imaging and laboratory findings to assist in the evaluation and confirmation of surgical diagnoses
- Work hand in hand with attending surgeons to develop individualized treatment plans tailored to each patient's unique clinical profile
- Provide skilled intraoperative assistance including sterile field management, patient positioning, and instrument handling throughout a range of surgical procedures
- Oversee pre- and post-operative patient care including wound management, medication protocols, discharge coordination, and thorough patient and family education
Education Requirements
- Master's degree from a fully accredited Physician Assistant program
- Clinical rotation experience with a concentration in surgical settings is strongly preferred
Certifications
- Active and unrestricted PA-C certification in good standing
- Current BLS and ACLS certification
- Valid state licensure as a Physician Assistant or demonstrated eligibility to obtain licensure
Skills and Attributes
- Solid foundational knowledge of surgical principles, sterile technique, and intraoperative protocols
- Demonstrated ability to analyze complex diagnostic data and contribute meaningfully to clinical decision-making
- Strong verbal and written communication skills with patients, families, and multidisciplinary team members
- Composure and adaptability in fast-paced, high-stakes surgical environments
- A genuine, empathetic bedside manner grounded in respect for patient dignity and autonomy
Benefits
- Highly competitive salary structure with performance-based incentives
- Comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage
- Generous paid time off alongside CME reimbursement and professional development support
- A collaborative, team-first culture backed by access to advanced surgical technology and resources
- Clear pathways for career growth within a forward-thinking and expanding healthcare organization
Your Everyday Impact
The role of a Surgical Physician Assistant extends far beyond the walls of the operating room. Yes, you will be scrubbed in and fully engaged during procedures — but your value radiates outward from there. You are the one explaining a complex diagnosis in terms a frightened family can understand. You are the one noticing a subtle change in a post-op patient that prevents a complication before it begins. You are the steady, trusted presence in a process that can feel overwhelming for the people living through it.
From minimally invasive laparoscopic cases to more demanding inpatient surgical procedures, your clinical contributions will be visible, valued, and vital. Your assessments will inform care decisions. Your recommendations will be heard. And your ability to see the whole patient — not just the surgical site — will set the tone for how this team delivers care at every level.
This is a team where collaboration is not a buzzword but a daily practice. Humility, precision, and shared accountability are the values that bind this group together — and they are the values that will make you feel like you belong here from day one.
Life in Miami, FL — Where the Energy Never Fades and the Horizon Always Inspires
When your shift ends and you step outside, you do not just step into a city — you step into an experience. Miami is one of those rare places where the energy of the environment matches the passion you bring to your work. It is bold, diverse, endlessly alive, and utterly unlike anywhere else in the country.
Picture a morning run along the stretch of South Beach before the crowds arrive, the Atlantic glittering in shades of turquoise that seem almost unreal. Picture weekend afternoons in Wynwood, where every alley is a canvas and every corner café feels like a discovery. Miami is a city that rewards curiosity — whether you are exploring the fragrant stalls of Little Havana, sailing out of Biscayne Bay on a clear Saturday, or dancing until midnight at one of the world-class venues that define the city's legendary nightlife.
The culinary landscape here is nothing short of extraordinary. Miami's food scene is a living reflection of its population — a brilliant, layered fusion of Caribbean, Latin American, and international influences that makes every meal feel like a cultural journey. From rooftop dining in Brickell to family-run Cuban spots with recipes passed down through generations, there is always something new to taste and discover.
And beyond the glamour, Miami is a city with genuine warmth. The communities here are tight-knit, the people are welcoming, and the lifestyle — whether you gravitate toward the arts district, the bay-front neighborhoods, or the lush residential areas further inland — offers a quality of living that is genuinely hard to match. World-class healthcare infrastructure, a thriving economy, and a climate that makes outdoor living a year-round reality combine to make this not just a great place to work, but an extraordinary place to build a full and meaningful life.
The Kind of Person We Are Looking For
We want a Physician Assistant who leans into challenge rather than away from it — someone who is as comfortable navigating a complex intraoperative decision as they are sitting with a patient who needs a little extra reassurance before going under anesthesia. We value self-awareness as much as technical skill, and we believe the best clinicians are the ones who never stop learning.
Whether you are early in your surgical journey and hungry to grow, or you are a seasoned PA bringing years of intraoperative experience to the table, what matters most to us is your integrity, your commitment to excellence, and the way you treat the people in your care. If you lead with empathy and back it up with clinical precision, we are ready to hear from you.
Ready to Make Your Next Move Count?
This is more than a career opportunity — it is an invitation to do meaningful work in a city that will inspire you, challenge you, and remind you why you chose this path in the first place. Every patient you support, every procedure you assist with, every family you guide through a difficult moment — it all adds up to something that matters deeply.
Come join a team where your expertise is celebrated, your growth is supported, and your impact is real. Miami is waiting — and so are we.
