Hi, I'm Melissa!
I'm a Senior Physician Recruiter with Synergy Health Partners, and I genuinely enjoy helping physicians find opportunities that fit both their professional goals and the life they want outside of work. I primarily recruit Orthopedic Surgeons, General Surgeons, Urologists, Gastroenterologists, and other surgical specialists for hospital-based Surgicalist programs across the country.
I know that changing jobs or even exploring new opportunities can feel overwhelming, so my goal is to make the process as straightforward and low-pressure as possible. Whether you're actively looking or just curious about what's out there, I'm always happy to have an honest conversation, answer questions, and share information without any expectations.
One of my favorite parts of recruiting is building long-term relationships. Many of the physicians I work with stay in touch for years, whether they're ready to make a move today or sometime down the road. I believe the best placements happen when there's trust, open communication, and a genuine understanding of what matters most to each person.
If you're interested in learning more about our flexible Surgicalist opportunities or just want to connect for future possibilities, I'd love to hear from you!
