Senior Physician / Consultant Emergency - without Night Shifts

Would you like to take on responsibility in emergency medicine? Here you will find clear structures, a manageable team, no night shifts, and the opportunity to contribute to the expansion of the emergency department.

You will work in a specialised hospital in Northwestern Switzerland, in the Basel area and close to the German border, focusing on musculoskeletal medicine and emergency care. The region is particularly attractive for doctors from Germany – both for commuters and for a long-term move to Switzerland.

The emergency centre is clearly structured and deliberately organised independently: it is a pure emergency post with a main focus on musculoskeletal injuries – without additional duties on other wards. Operations run in a two-shift model between 08:00 and 20:00, without traditional night shifts.

The team currently consists of 2 senior physicians, a deputy senior physician, and a junior doctor. The emergency centre is in a clear growth phase: patient numbers are increasing, spatial capacities are being expanded, and the medical services are being developed step by step. For you, this means a rare combination of an existing structure and genuine scope for shaping.

• Independent care of emergency patients with a main focus on musculoskeletal emergencies
• Taking responsibility in clinical daily routine as a senior physician / consultant
