Overview

At Legacy, we are committed to making life better for others by providing state-of-the-art care with compassion. If this is how you view your work as an OB/GYN, we invite you to consider joining our community.

This OB/GYN Hospitalist position is part of Legacy Medical Group (LMG) and is shared between Legacy Mount Hood (LMH) Medical Center in Gresham, OR and Randall Children’s (RCH) /Legacy Emanuel Hospital (LEH) in Portland, OR.

This shared position offers the unique opportunity to work as an OB/GYN Hospitalist in a collaborative community setting at Legacy Mount Hood AND on a high-risk teaching service at a referral hospital in close collaboration with Maternal Fetal Medicine at Randall Children’s Hospital.

The LMH OB/GYN Hospitalist covers the Family Birth Center including high-risk and unassigned patients. The hospitalist works closely with a 24/7 in-house CNM, who manages their own low-risk OB patients and first assists on C-sections. LMH outpatient clinic physicians provide OB/GYN back-up for emergencies and complex surgeries. The group works closely with LMG Maternal Fetal Medicine physicians, who have a clinic presence during the week and collaborate on pregnant people requiring transfer to Randall Children’s for a higher level of care.

At RCH/LEMC the OB/GYN hospitalist supports the inpatient needs of the LMG Maternal Fetal Medicine service and supervises Family Medicine and OB/GYN residents from Oregon Health Sciences University. Other responsibilities include backup to the employed Certified Nurse Midwifery practice, coverage for unassigned labor/triage patients, and support of our private practice OB/GYN colleagues as needed (i.e. C-section assisting).

The OB/GYN Hospitalist is responsible for Emergency Department and inpatient gynecologic consults and emergencies (miscarriage, ovarian torsion, ectopic pregnancy) at both hospitals. Both hospitals provide 24/7 in house Anesthesia coverage.

Shifts are either 12 or 24 hours, starting at 7 am. These shifts are in-house where there is a well-appointed call room. Weekend shifts are split evenly among the group of employees, as are holidays which are on a rotating schedule.

Requirements and Qualifications:

Graduate of four-year U.S. Medical School or equivalent with residency completed in OB/GYN
Board Certified or Board Eligible in OB-GYN.
Unrestricted license to practice medicine in Oregon.
Current BLS from the American Heart Association required.

Gynecology procedures including D&C, minor and major laparoscopy with adnexal surgery (oophorectomy, cystectomy, salpingectomy, ectopic), tubal ligation (laparoscopic and postpartum).
