About the Team

Virginia Mason Franciscan Health brings together two award-winning health systems in Washington State – CHI Franciscan and Virginia Mason. As one integrated health system with the most patient access points in western Washington, our team includes 18,000 staff and nearly 5,000 employed physicians and affiliated providers. We operate 11 hospitals and nearly 300 sites throughout the greater Puget Sound region, delivering the safest and highest quality of care.

Our Maternal Fetal Medicine group is a well-established and busy physician and midwife women's health team located in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. We consist of 9 OB/GYN physicians, 18 CNMs, 6 MFM specialists, 1 Urogynecologist, and 2 Gynecologic Oncologists. Our practices are strategically located near the hospitals from which we practice, serving Tacoma and surrounding communities with evidence-based women's healthcare services.

We are part of a rapidly growing region where the Puget Sound communities offer award-winning arts, cultural, and sporting events. Our main support offices are in Tacoma, with clinics and hospitals in King, Kitsap, and Pierce counties. Here, we enjoy mild weather and stunning views of Mount Rainier and the Olympic Mountains.

About the Role

We are actively seeking a highly motivated and skilled PRN Maternal Fetal Medicine physician to join our esteemed team in Tacoma, WA. This role is designed to assist predominantly with outpatient clinic duties and some call duties, which are primarily taken from home. Providers in this group typically deliver 0-4 babies per month.

You will work within a supportive environment featuring MA's and nurses to assist with diabetic education, as well as fully trained MFM sonographers. Procedures include cerclages and amniocentesis, with CVS and fetal echocardiogram being optional. Our group also has GYN/ONC and UroGyn support readily available.

You will partner with St. Joseph Hospital, a 375-bed, Level II Trauma Center in Tacoma. The hospital features 24/7 in-house Laborist and Anesthesia coverage, a Level III NICU capable of caring for infants as young as 22 weeks, and a partnership with Seattle Children's for specialty newborn care. St. Joe's has achieved Baby Friendly designation and recognition by the International Lactation Consultant Association for excellence in lactation care.

Our group serves in one of the most rapidly growing areas in the country. Living in the Puget Sound Region provides for an active city life while offering plenty of outdoor adventures. Whether you desire city sophistication or off-trail adventures, the south Puget Sound has it all. The Northwest's bountiful waters and mountains provide an active, outdoor lifestyle, ranging from hiking the face of a volcano to exploring saltwater beaches. The region also boasts vibrant art and theater communities, world-class fine dining, good schools, and nationally ranked colleges and universities.
