Physician

About the role

Skilled Wound Care is seeking motivated physicians to lead wound care initiatives within Skilled Nursing Facilities throughout Allegheny County and the surrounding Western PA region. Whether you are looking to step away from the rigid "system" culture of the major local networks or a surgeon seeking a predictable schedule without the burden of hospital call, we offer a high-impact path designed for a better quality of life.

The Pittsburgh Physician Advantage

In a region where "healthcare" is the biggest employer, we offer a way to practice that feels personal again:

• The "Black & Gold" Lifestyle: No nights, no weekends, and zero "on-call" responsibilities. This is a true M-F opportunity that ensures you’re home for the first pitch at PNC Park or the kickoff at Acrisure Stadium.
• Clinical Sovereignty: Avoid the "system" fatigue. In a city dominated by two major players, we offer a third path. You lead the clinical direction based on your expertise, not a corporate mandate or academic hierarchy.
• Efficient Documentation: Our custom software is designed to be fast and intuitive, ensuring you aren't finishing charts in an EMR until 9:00 PM.

Compensation

• Average Annual Earnings: $220,000 – $250,000 (No earning cap as an Independent Contractor).
• Top performers earn $300,000+ via performance bonuses.
• Transparent per-patient and per-procedure pay structure + quarterly bonus programs—providing a high-end income with a Pittsburgh cost of living.

Training

• 36 hours of company-provided CME, workshops, and specialized training to bridge the gap between your current specialty and wound care.

Meaningful Clinical Work
