Physician Heerlen - 24 to 40 hours per week

For our location in Heerlen, we are looking for a (general) physician for 24 to 40 hours per week.

Are you a general practitioner or perhaps a specialist (in training) and are you ready for a new step in your career?

Are you looking for a job in which, as a doctor, you have more time for your patient (and the person behind them), are in the middle of society, and no longer have to work irregular shifts? Then come work as a physician in the south of the Netherlands.

As a physician at the NOK, you are the pivot between the bariatric surgeons in the hospital and the patient in your treatment room. At NOK Clinics, you are the medical advisor for the client in your treatment room. Together with your colleagues—care coordinators, practitioners, and coaches—you can make a difference for patients and clients and guide them toward a healthy weight. Without that white coat and without long working days.

During the weight reduction and stabilization trajectories, you provide diagnostics during screening and conduct individual and group sessions. This means you see patients from moment one, but you also see them if, for example, there are complications after surgery. You are responsible for the medical telephone, which means you are the point of contact for medical questions from patients before and after surgery. You also perform medical triage for complaints after surgery. You are truly in contact with your patients and bring about a positive change during their trajectory. What is beautiful is: you build a long-term relationship with your patients. You experience their change from A to Z from up close.

You also prescribe medication, request results and findings, and interpret them. The lines with the bariatric surgeons in the hospital are short, and you are the go-to person/expert for colleagues and patients/clients regarding specific medical matters. Collaboration is our strength; there is hardly any hierarchy.

Working at the NOK is dynamic. No two days are the same and every patient has their own story. As a physician at the NOK, you can make a difference with your expertise. But under conditions that are also pleasant for you, such as working during office hours (08:30 - 17:00). This way, you maintain job satisfaction and there is sufficient time left for all the fun things outside of work.

• an entrepreneurial, involved, enthusiastic, and communicative physician (general practitioner/ Anios/ physician assistant) with a completed medical degree (preferably medical knowledge in the field of obesity, diabetes mellitus, and related conditions);

• BIG registered and an affinity with our patient group;

• looking for a job that provides job satisfaction and in which there is attention to your work-life balance;
