The SSM Health Department of Orthopedics in Madison, Wisconsin is recruiting a hand and upper extremity surgeon.

The wording is worth reading closely. A post advertised as hand and upper extremity generally expects elbow work alongside the hand and wrist, and sometimes shoulder. That is a materially different practice from one confined to the hand, it changes which fellowship maps cleanly onto the job, and it changes the theatre list. If your training was hand-focused it is worth establishing early how far up the arm the expectation runs.

Madison is a university city of around a quarter of a million people, and the health systems there draw referrals from across southern Wisconsin.

SSM Health's own listing has the scope, the call and the compensation structure, and takes applications directly.
