10
Days per month
The schedule that changes everything.
Work 10 days a month and reclaim the rest. No call creep, no administrative drag — just focused, high-impact trauma surgery at a Level II center, then the Black Hills at your doorstep.
The lifestyle
Adventure outside. Excellence inside.
Rapid City sits at the edge of one of America's most spectacular landscapes. In 20 minutes you're riding trails through Custer State Park, skiing Terry Peak, or standing beneath Mount Rushmore. In summer, the Black Hills fill with hikers, climbers, and riders. In winter, the region transforms into a quiet, snow-covered playground. The cost of living is remarkably low, the communities are tight-knit, and the outdoor access is genuinely unmatched. This is the rare position where your career and your quality of life don't trade off against each other — they both win.
What you'll do clinically
Join a busy ACS-verified Level II Trauma Center at Monument Health Rapid City Hospital, seeing over 3,000 traumas per year across a five-state region. You'll work within a fully supported orthopedic trauma team backed by 24/7/365 APP coverage, dedicated OR block time Monday through Friday, and a separate hand call service — so your focus stays on trauma.
