Mackenzie Health Division of General Surgery is looking to recruit a colorectal surgeon to join our current group of 13 general surgeons. The successful candidate will work at both the Mackenzie Richmond Hill Hospital and Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital.
We are looking for a colorectal surgeon who has an interest in benign colorectal surgery, such as IBD, as well as expertise in robotic colorectal surgery.
This position comes with an elective OR practice, including endoscopy time. The candidate will also be expected to participate in ACS weeks at both of our sites.
Mackenzie Health supports York Region, a population of more than half a million people. Each hospital has it’s own ACS service and call schedule, with a different surgeon on-call at each site. This is why call is 1 in 7 even though there will be 14 surgeons. Both of our ACS services are managed and led by a Nurse Practitioner at each site.
Mackenzie Health is a future teaching site for York University School of Medicine with its inaugural class to begin July 2028, and a general surgery residency program scheduled to open in July 2029.
