Valley View Hospital is seeking a Breast Surgeon to join our established Breast Center program serving patients across Colorado’s Western Slope — all while living in majestic Glenwood Springs, nestled between Aspen and Vail, where others vacation and you get to call home.
This opportunity is ideal for a surgeon who values longitudinal patient relationships, multidisciplinary collaboration, and meaningful community impact within an independent, physician-aligned health system. Here, you can build a rewarding breast surgery practice focused on high-quality care, access, and continuity — without the pressures of a large academic or corporate environment.
The Breast Center operates within a Commission on Cancer (CoC)–accredited cancer program and is fully integrated with the Calaway-Young Cancer Center. Care is delivered through a coordinated, multidisciplinary model that includes breast imaging, medical oncology, radiation oncology, genetics, nurse navigation, survivorship, and supportive services.
The program also includes in-house plastic and reconstructive surgery, allowing seamless coordination of combined breast oncologic and reconstructive cases. Breast surgeons participate in a general tumor board, reinforcing evidence-based care and shared clinical decision-making.
This position will be open for a minimum of three days and until a top applicant is identified.
Candidates must be a Board-certified or board-eligible General Surgeon with breast fellowship training or significant breast surgery experience. A commitment to patient-centered, community-based care and a team-oriented practice style are required.
