Locum Emergency Physician

Who we are:

Emergency Medicine in its full breadth: that is what our department stands for. With 16 ER physicians, we form an ambitious and collegial department that delivers high-quality acute care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We work intensively with ER nurses, medical assistants, ER physician assistants, HAIOs (doctors in training), and medical students, and actively contribute to their training and education. Our complementary backup is organized directly at the medical-specialist level. Thanks to the short lines of communication within the ER and the hospital, we work together efficiently. Additionally, we are actively involved regionally and nationally in the further development and emancipation of Emergency Medicine.

Our ER is located in Goes and is a full-fledged, highly complex department for life-threatening care. Adrz is level II-certified for trauma and has an ICU with 12 beds. Together with the Medical Center for Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, we are the expertise center for diving accidents in the Netherlands. Our catchment area has over 280,000 inhabitants, but due to tourism, the population triples during peak periods. Annually, we treat over 29,000 patients, of which less than 5% are self-referrals and approximately 40% are admitted.

Who we are looking for:

For a temporary replacement during maternity leave, we are looking for an enthusiastic colleague for 27-36 hours per week (three/four shifts of nine hours) in the period from November 1, 2026, through March 31, 2027. The position can potentially also be filled by two colleagues.

You are an independent ER physician who feels at home in a dynamic environment and enjoys collaborating with colleagues both within and outside the ER.

What we offer:

You will join a professional, well-staffed, and close-knit department in which Emergency Medicine is practiced in its full scope. During day and evening shifts, you will work in a double staffing arrangement. Within Adrz, the ER physician has the role and position of a full medical specialist, including salary in accordance with AMS. Furthermore, you will live and work in a province where space, peace, and nature are always close by. Regarding (temporary) housing, we are happy to think along with you.

Interested?

To obtain information or apply directly? This can be done through Saskia van der Heijden, department chair and ER physician, reachable via email: s.vanderheijden@adrz.nl or by telephone: 088-1254075. Or contact Wim Goudswaard, manager of care & operations for the Acute Care Unit, reachable via email: w.goudswaard@adrz.nl. Shadowing for half a day to get a feel for the atmosphere is naturally possible. We also cordially invite you even if you will be completing your training soon.
