As you circulate and scrub, you’ll be instrumental in orchestrating safe anesthesia experiences, maintaining sterile technique, and supporting surgeons through complex procedures. Each shift is an opportunity to elevate patient outcomes, mentor newer staff, and grow your perioperative knowledge across general surgery, orthopedics, and specialty cases. Midland offers the best of small-town living and access to the rich experiences of the state: you can unwind at local parks and trails, explore lakeside getaways, and enjoy regional arts and dining—all while working within a community that values excellence in care. If you’re drawn to the idea of expanding your impact with the flexibility to explore other U.S. locations through a travel-friendly program, this role provides that balance of stability and adventure.

Beyond the hospital walls, Michigan’s natural beauty beckons—sunlit summer days on shorelines, scenic trails through forests, and easy weekend getaways to nearby lakes and national forests. For those who relish professional mobility, there is the opportunity to work at partner facilities across the U.S. should you choose to rotate, all while keeping Midland as your base. The surrounding communities offer affordable living, good schools, and a welcoming vibe that makes it easier to focus on your practice and personal growth.
