Job description
Trauma Medical Director – North Dallas, Texas
Sigma Surgical is seeking a Board-Certified Surgical Critical Care surgeon to serve as Trauma Medical Director for an established Level II Trauma Center in North Dallas. This leadership role blends trauma program oversight with a high-volume operative practice and an exceptionally attractive schedule.
The position includes approximately 52 in-house 24-hour trauma/EGS shifts per year, backup coverage, and flexible weekday administrative responsibilities. The ideal candidate is comfortable independently managing a busy emergency general surgery service, operating across the full breadth of acute care surgery, and leading continued trauma program development.
Compensation includes a strong guaranteed component with significant productivity-based upside and 90th-percentile earning potential. Elective practice is available but not required. Additional compensated Surgical ICU opportunities are anticipated as the program expands.
