Description

Doctor of Medicine | Hematology and Oncology
Location: Hawaii
Employer: Elite365
Pay: Competitive weekly pay (inquire for details)
Shift Information: Days - 5 days x 8 hours
Start Date: ASAP

About the Position

• The permanent seat has gone unfilled for 2.5+ years — no candidate willing to relocate to the island — so this is a sustained, recurring locum need with patients currently waiting for care.
• Strong, experienced nursing support on site (several nurses with 20+ years at the clinic). The role is well-supported and stable rather than high-acuity.

Responsibilities

• Oversee and manage outpatient chemotherapy / infusion treatments.
• Provide consistent physician presence through the middle of patients’ treatment plans — continuity of care matters here.
• Work alongside the established nursing team in a structured outpatient day.

Ideal Candidate — Screening & Fit (read before sourcing)

• Temperament is the make-or-break screen. This is an outpatient infusion setting, not level-one trauma. Past placements who came from high-acuity / trauma backgrounds have struggled. Screen for physicians who are comfortable sitting with patients, listening, and providing a calm, reassuring presence.
• Oncologists are often not motivated by rate — they tend to be loyal to an existing patient panel and reluctant to leave. Prioritize candidates who are between practices, semi-retired, adventure/locale-motivated, or genuinely open to island relocation.
• Confirm willingness to relocate to a remote part of the island and live there for multi-week rotations — set this expectation early to avoid late-stage fallout.

Requirements

• Board-certified / board-eligible Hematology-Oncology (MD/DO).
• Active Hawaii license, or willing to obtain (factor licensing + island-time credentialing into start timeline).
• Clean background; comfortable with outpatient infusion oncology.
