Job Description

Are you looking for an interventional pain management role that offers true clinical autonomy, zero start-up risk, and top-tier financial rewards?

Lutheran Downtown Hospital is seeking a Board-Certified, Fellowship-Trained Interventional Pain Management Physician (PM&R or Anesthesiology) to establish and lead a brand-new service line. Step into a high-impact, highly lucrative role where you'll capture massive unaddressed market demand in southeastern Fort Wayne and New Haven-enjoying zero mandatory call, dedicated block time, and immediate internal referral support.

What's In It For You?

• High Earning Potential & Security: Total compensation guaranteed for 2 years, transitioning into high-upside performance incentives.
• Turnkey Setup & Instant Volume: Capitalize on over 500+ annual in-network referrals currently leaving the health system due to a regional shortage of pain providers. Tap into an eager referral base of primary care physicians, neurosurgeons, and spine surgeons from Day 1.
• No Mandatory Call: Enjoy your evenings and weekends with zero call responsibilities and a predictable 5-day schedule.
• Robust Incentive Package: Commencement Bonus | Student Loan Repayment Assistance | Relocation Package | Fellowship Stipend | CME, Dues, and License Allowance.
• Turnkey Practice & Advanced Technology: Perform procedures using a dedicated hospital C-arm with dedicated block time.
• Built-in APP & Collaborative Support: Full administrative support, clinical staffing, and a dedicated 1.0 FTE Advanced Practice Provider (PA/NP) to assist with clinic volume once ramped up. Work alongside established network leadership for local proctoring and strategic partnership.

Your Role & Clinical Scope

• Outpatient Clinic & Procedures: Split your time evenly between 2-3 outpatient clinic days and 2-3 dedicated hospital procedure days using block time.
• Procedural Focus: Evaluate and treat complex pain disorders with a heavy focus on interventional procedures-not prescription management.
• EMR: Cerner.

Candidate Qualifications

• Education: MD or DO from an accredited program.
• Training: ACGME-accredited Fellowship in Pain Medicine (Anesthesiology or PM&R background).
• Board Certification: Board Certified in Pain Medicine (or Board Eligible for recent fellowship graduates).
• Experience: Open to both Experienced Physicians and Graduating Fellows.
• Visa Sponsorship: Visa candidates are not supported for this position.
• Key Traits: High procedural focus, entrepreneurial drive to build a service line, and a collaborative approach to supervising and partnering with Advanced Practice Providers.
