Make a Move For The Long Term In This Clinically Fulfilling DWS Role On The Whitsunday Coast

The Position

Would you like to find a permanent Radiologist position where you can settle for the long term?  Can you picture a life working for a well-respected radiology clinic, with the pristine beaches of the Whitsundays, spectacular national parks and abundant wildlife to enjoy on your days off? 

A private diagnostic imaging provider based in Mackay, Queensland, would like to welcome a radiologist to their supportive and patient-focused team.

This radiology outpatient site offers a comprehensive range of services including Xray, Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Mammography, Interventional Radiology, Nuclear Medicine, BMD and Fluoroscopy.  These modalities cover a wide range of skills and interests, which is one of the reasons why the two on-site radiologists have had such a long tenure working there.  This role is perfect for those with MR skills, as there is a fully rebated MRI on site.  Subspecialty skills could also be accommodated. 

This is a well-paced role where the work will be shared across two radiologists, with off-site support when the other radiologist is on leave.  There is no on-call required, meaning you have plenty of time to enjoy the idyllic lifestyle the Whitsunday coast offers.  However, additional after-hours off-site reporting is available for those who wish to increase their income.
