Colorectal Surgery - Boise, ID
Job Description
Join a physician-led multispecialty group comprising over 650 providers, dedicated to a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach to patient care. This role will involve working closely within the Minimally Invasive/Robotics surgical team and the colorectal division. As a vital member of the surgical oncology department, you will collaborate with fellow cancer surgeons, including those specialized in surgical oncology, breast, gynecologic, and advanced foregut procedures. The focus will be on minimally invasive techniques, robotics, and advanced therapeutic endoscopy, utilizing a range of sophisticated surgical tools and methods, including robotic systems and advanced laparoscopic techniques. While expertise in pelvic floor disorders, manometry, and the management of complex inflammatory bowel disease is preferred, it is not a strict requirement for the right candidate. Our surgical services are part of an accredited oncology program, fostering strong connections with medical and radiation oncology. Furthermore, this multidisciplinary team is actively pursuing accreditation with the National Accreditation Program for Rectal Cancer (NAPRC), with an expected completion date in Fall 2026. Enjoy a balanced professional life in the serene environment of Boise, Idaho.

This full-time position follows a traditional workweek, Monday through Friday, with at least 32 hours dedicated to patient interactions, encompassing clinic visits, procedures, and consultations. Additionally, there is a 1:7 shared practice call arrangement within the MIS/robotics surgical group, with no unattached ER call and no responsibilities for acute care general surgery.
Support: Benefit from a network of over 70 primary care clinics within the Saint Alphonsus Medical Group. The Level II Trauma Center includes an Emergency Department, da Vinci XI & SI systems, a hospitalist program, and a neuro, surgical, and trauma ICU (NeST) with 24/7 coverage by surgical intensivists. Additional facilities include a neuro-critical care Medical ICU, CVICU, NICU, and on-site anesthesia available around the clock, alongside gynecologic oncology services and partnerships with independent community organizations.
