job—but there are jobs that people truly love. And at Great River Health, our Hospitalist team loves working here. Why?
A true family atmosphere among our behavioral health team—teamwork, stability and camaraderie matter here.
World-class care—our team is dedicated to excellence.
Big enough to have diverse pathology, small enough for no local competition.
A supportive, open-door administration that values your voice.
A welcoming, family-friendly community with top-tier schools.
Financial security you can count on— we paid ALL medical staff 100% during the COVID pandemic.
Why This is the Opportunity You’ve Been Waiting For:
$359,000+ annual pay PLUS a $50,000 commencement bonus
Work 182 shifts between our two inpatient units that are only 20 minutes apart (we don‘t have traffic!) + full benefits, malpractice coverage, and up to $15K relocation assistance.
Fair rotation of shift coverage—because work-life balance matters
A 380-bed, independent, and financially stable health system with 12 bed and 8 bed behavioral health inpatient units and BHAT‘s in the ED‘s.
Team-based compensation model—you’re on equal footing with partners from day one
24/7 board-certified EM physicians staffing the ER for seamless care coordination
ED is right down the hall for easy access to admissions
Big enough to have most specialists for consult support, but small enough that there is only one group of each!
Full scope of clinic based physicians, MHNP‘s and Counselors available within our health system
EPIC EMR going live in June of 2026!

Live the way you want! Choose from prestigious gated communities, golf course living, or spacious acreage to build your dream home.
Top-ranked public and private schools—a fantastic place to raise a family.
Scenic riverfront town with 11 parks, a water park, and waterfront recreation.
Two of Iowa’s top 10 golf courses and a country club with tennis, pool, and fitness center.
