About the Opportunity

A hospital in Cortlandt Manor, NY is seeking a Gastroenterologist to provide weekend call coverage from January through March 2027, with a high possibility of extension. Temporary privileges may be available, though the credentialing file must be complete. This is a call-only assignment, with no scheduled procedures, clinic, or endoscopy suite responsibilities. Locums will not be required to perform elective procedures.

Call is taken from home or a nearby hotel, though providers may need to come into the hospital for consults and procedures, and must stay within 30 minutes of the hospital. Patients are seen only as a result of on-call consults, and all consults must be performed on-site. Volume varies, from no new patients to a maximum of about five in house over a weekend, with up to roughly 5 call-backs per shift. The hospital has a 24/7 hospitalist program, so there is no admitting.
