Job Opportunity: Immediate opening at Lexington VAMC

Job Opportunity Available

Immediate opening at Lexington VAMC for a full-time VA Urologist. A faculty appointment is available with the affiliate institution (University of Kentucky) and competitive salary/benefits come with the position.  Lexington, Kentucky is a very desirable location with affordable housing, good schools and it is a safe city to raise a family. Not to mention, it is the Horse Capital of the World and for Bourbon enthusiasts, this is the center of it all. The preferred candidate would be an early to mid-career Urologist with minimally invasive experience or minimally invasive surgery fellowship training who would, after 2-3 years, transition to the Chief of Urology (VAMC) position, however, all applicants will be considered (including graduating residents in 2019).  The DaVinci Xi Robot is available and owned by our facility.  All subspecialties are represented at Univ. of Kentucky and our VA has an excellent working relationship with the affiliate institution such that our Veterans receive world class, subspecialty and general urology care. If you are looking for a change, a great place to live and work, and a gratifying job, look no further. Also, Urologists leaving the military before a retirement (short of 20 years) are eligible to transfer/purchase your years of military service into the VA retirement system! This is a huge benefit. Please share this with colleagues/residents/fellows in your programs. Please send application/CV to David M. Preston, MD, Chief, Urology Service, VAMC Lexington – email (david.preston2@va.gov < Caution-mailto:david.preston2@va.gov > ) and by phone, please text 859-396-3323 identifying your interest and contact number and Dr. Preston will reply back.
