Job Summary

Denver Health Medical Center is recruiting for a Maternal Fetal Medicine Physician to join our Ob / Gyn team.

Denver Health Hospital is the safety net hospital for the city and county of Denver. The OB / GYN Department provides full-scope obstetric and gynecologic services.

The focus of our care is on the underserved populations of the city and county of Denver. As such, we serve patients who are primarily government insured, or without insurance, and who tend to be more medically and socially complex than at other institutions in the Denver metro area.

In terms of obstetric volume, the hospital performs approximately 4,000 deliveries per year.

Denver Health is a teaching affiliate of the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus. Physicians in the OB / GYN Department have regular teaching responsibilities for residents and medical students, in both clinical and didactic settings.

A Maternal and Fetal Medicine physician in the Department is expected to contribute to and guide the care of patients with high-risk conditions in pregnancy.
