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.

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.
