Ownership Opportunity in New Orleans
For most accomplished surgeons, there's a quiet shift that happens a few years in. The conversation begins to shift from where you're working, toward what you're building. If that's where you are, this opportunity may be worth your attention.
We're looking for a Board-Certified or Board-Eligible Oral & Maxillofacial Surgeon to open a brand-new oral surgery center in New Orleans, Louisiana. You'd be stepping into the founding surgeon role with equity from day one, and none of the capital or back-office burden that usually comes with going out on your own. The clinical vision, referral relationships, and team culture - they're all yours to shape. The infrastructure to support you is already in place.
What This Opportunity Offers
Immediate equity partnership with $0 buy-in
$500,000+ guaranteed base salary with collections-based upside
Substantial monetary transition award
Relocation assistance and continuing education stipend
Full operational, marketing, and administrative support
Advanced digital workflows and implant-focused technology
Skilled clinical and surgical support team
Mentorship from distinguished surgeon partners
The autonomy to shape your practice your way
Who This Opportunity Is Designed For
Board-Certified or Board-Eligible in Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery
Eligible for licensure in Louisiana
Ideally 1-5 years into practice and ready for greater ownership
Entrepreneurial mindset with leadership ambition
Strong communicator who enjoys referral-building
Committed to clinical excellence and building something lasting
Why New Orleans
There aren't many cities in America with a sense of identity as strong as New Orleans. It's a place that takes its food, its music, and its neighborhoods seriously, and it rewards people who put down roots. The healthcare market is steady, the cost of living is well below the national average, and the patient community is loyal in a way that's increasingly hard to find.
Outside of work, you'll have Jazz Fest and Mardi Gras on the calendar every year, restaurants that compete with anywhere in the country, and weekends on the Gulf Coast or in Cajun country. It's a city that knows how to live well, and surgeons who settle here tend to stay.
