University of Pittsburgh Physicians and UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, in collaboration with UPMC Pinnacle, is inviting applications for two fully-trained pediatric general surgeon positions to be based in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania effective immediately.

Clinical responsibilities will be primarily based at UPMC Pinnacle in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, but will also entail some work at UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. The surgeons will cover UPMC Pinnacle’s in-born neonatal population (encompassing some 6,000+ births), with a need to develop an expanded pediatric general surgical practice in collaboration with UPMC Pinnacle leadership and pediatricians, as well as other regional pediatricians. The surgeons will collaborate closely with pediatric surgeons based at the UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. Candidates must be able to function proficiently in English.

UPMC Pinnacle Harrisburg is served by two general surgical residencies, as well as by rotating surgical residents from other residency programs in Central Pennsylvania. Candidates may be fresh out of training or more senior, and salary will be commensurate with experience.

UPMC Pinnacle, University of Pittsburgh Physicians, and UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh are strongly committed to diversity within its community and especially welcome applications from visible minority group members, women, persons with disabilities, members of sexual minority groups, and others who may contribute to further diversification of ideas.

Harrisburg is a lovely city situated on the Susquehanna river in South Central Pennsylvania, offering many indoor and outdoor activities, affordable housing, and proximity to New York City and Philadelphia. 

Please submit applications, including a curriculum vitae and the names of three referees to: Dr. George Gittes, UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh, One Children’s Hospital Drive, Department of Surgery, Pittsburgh, PA, 15224. Telephone: 412-692-7291, e-mail: George.Gittes@chp.edu.
