Dear potential physician teammates,

I serve as the hospitalist program medical director for Sound Physicians' practice at Banner Wyoming Medical Center in Casper, Wyoming.

• Our team comprises clinicians from diverse geographic, educational, and training backgrounds. We foster a supportive and collaborative atmosphere, ensuring an environment where everyone can thrive personally and professionally.
• Beyond our professional bonds, we share a strong personal connection. We enjoy spending time together outside of work through quarterly dinners and happy hours.
• In our leisure time, we relish the abundance of outdoor activities that Wyoming offers, including mountain climbing, hiking, river floats, visits to national parks, and skiing MT1 .

With direct flights from Casper s regional airport to Denver and Salt Lake City, travel is convenient. We provide a flexible schedule to accommodate your travel needs and offer an increased shift rate to assist with covering travel expenses.

• We thrive on challenging, complex cases and operate within a semi-open ICU. Daytime coverage is provided by intensivists, and we have telemedicine ICU coverage during the night. Our team is not responsible for procedures or running codes.
• For those inclined toward teaching, we have opportunities to work with medical students from the University of Washington.
• Regular quarterly team meetings and a monthly newsletter keep us informed and engaged. We also come together for Friday lunches to foster a learning culture.
• Our team motto is happy providers with a manageable workload. We prioritize work-life balance by offering a flexible schedule and one, two-week stint off each year for extended vacations. We understand that life can be unpredictable, and we're here to support each other when needed.
• Benefits include comprehensive medical, dental, vision, life, and AD&D insurance, long- and short-term disability coverage, a 401k plan with a matching component, paid medical malpractice insurance with tail coverage, and an annual CME allowance.

• Patients are at the core of everything we do, and their well-being is our top priority.
• Growth and development are hallmarks of Sound's practices. Team members have opportunities for career advancement both locally and within our broader medical group.
• Our team is deeply committed to our community. We encourage team members to contribute within and outside the hospital to enhance the well-being of our local community. Many of us are actively involved in hospital committees and participate in community outreach organizations, such as the Natrona Collective Health Trust.
