- Oncology Physician Assistant in Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas – $100,000+ compensation after your first 12 months: The Nevins Group has an exclusive contract to recruit an experienced Oncology PA for a fast-growing and very stable practice in the Dallas region. This position has a 50-hour work week, M-F, usually from 8:30a.m. to 6:30p.m., with no call and weekends free. We’ve placed three PAs with this organization over the past five years and they are all still with the employer. As the newest PA, you will work with two well-reputed physicians. The first is said to be “one of the nicest physicians” you could ever work with; he is very efficient, sees a lot of patients, and yet he leaves the office on-time each day. More important, he is said to be a “huge patient advocate” and will do “what’s right for the patient.” The second doctor is the “most down-to-earth” person and is said to be very nice and “very energetic” with “lots of personality”; he is a “born teacher,” and is generous and will often take a back seat to others’ needs. This second doctor is busy, yet is continuing to ramp-up his comparatively-new practice. Both doctors are said to be “devoid of ego” in comparison to other physicians. To meet their needs, we are looking for an experienced Oncology PA who is professional, highly-intelligent, outgoing, cheerful, and hard-working. We may consider a “cracker-jack, sharp as a tack” PA who has substantial internal medicine experience rather than oncology, but we’d strongly prefer oncology experience. The base salary is up to $85,000 a year. In addition, you will be eligible for productivity bonuses that will take your compensation up to the $100,000+ level after your first year of employment. For more information or to apply, please be sure to email your resume and detailed cover letter to nevinsgroup@gmail.com. Or you may fax us at: 772-299-1680. Our website is www.nevinsgroup.com. We respond to all CVs within two business days of receipt; if you do not hear from us, it means we haven’t received your resume. Finally, please be sure to submit your resume prior to contacting us by phone. We thank you for your interest in this desirable oncology PA opening!
