This
Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is expanding its team with a full-time position for an
obstetrician and gynecologist at the Mankato campus. The role is designed for a Generalist who will
have the opportunity to work in a newly completed, state-of-the-art birthing center. This center is
part of the hospital's latest expansion and features seven labor and delivery rooms, each equipped
with advanced patient monitoring technology and a birthing tub for hydrotherapy. Additionally, there
are twelve postpartum rooms designed for comfort and care. The labor and delivery services are
supported by a dedicated team of physicians and certified nurse midwives, who provide primary care
for low-risk patients. They collaborate closely with a skilled and passionate nursing team.
The
Mankato campus offers a dynamic and collaborative work environment, with a dedicated team of five
nurse midwives who are integral to primary obstetric care. They work in concert with a rotation of
five OB/GYN physicians who provide secondary support, ensuring comprehensive care for patients. The
practice is not only bustling with a busy clinic but also boasts a well-established surgical

integrated approach to patient care fosters a supportive and efficient workplace, ideal for those
passionate about women's health and obstetrics.
The medical practice in Mankato is a robust center

capabilities for neonatal care, including a level II special care nursery and dedicated pediatric
support, the center is well-equipped to handle deliveries from 32 weeks to full term. The call
schedule is manageable, ensuring a good work-life balance for practitioners. The surgical department
is particularly noteworthy, offering access to state-of-the-art Da Vinci X robotic systems for a
range of procedures, highlighting the center's commitment to minimally invasive techniques. This is
further evidenced by the expertise of providers with focused practice designation in Minimally
Invasive Surgery, specializing in the treatment of conditions like endometriosis and fibroids.
Additionally, the presence of a board-certified urogynecologist enhances the practice's
comprehensive care. For cases requiring further specialized attention, the proximity to the Mayo
