Calais Dermatology Associates is Seeking a Dermatologist!
Are you looking to join a small private Dermatology clinic where we have been treating patients like family for over 40 years? Another great benefit is we invested and upgraded all our computers, phones and systems within the last year. We have been using Modernizing Medicine's EMR now for over 8 years. We recently implemented their new Practice Management system and Inventory Management system, which is now all integrated with our EMR. We have had many new and exciting changes and additions over the last year to ensure our patients are given the best overall experience.
We are looking to add 1, possibly 2, new or experienced Dermatologists to our well-established private practice Dermatology Clinic which is in the heart of Baton Rouge adjacent to Our Lady of the Lake Hospital. We provide each patient with professional, personable care in a comfortable, warm setting. Our whole staff makes every effort to provide this care in a professional, timely manner. Our goal is to treat our patients as we would want to be treated. We appreciate every patient who chooses to entrust us with their skincare needs!
We are very excited to find someone to add to our growing team to serve our ever-expanding patient population.
