About our job opening

The position is for placement in MAVA with 28 care places divided into 4 teams.

With us, you are a key person and will join a great team that cares for each other and the operation. As a senior physician, you are an integral part of the medical team and collaborate closely with other professional categories in the clinic. Training and courses are provided both internally and externally.

We want to strengthen MAVA for the future and be the ward that can handle more advanced patients in internal medicine. We have a vision of opening IMA places within a couple of years.

We have a significant educational mission with large parts of the medical course for medical education located at SÄS. We are proud to call ourselves a university hospital unit, which means a quality stamp on our research and educational capacity.

The medical area is organized into three sections: hematology/oncology section, pulmonology/gastroenterology/endocrinology/medicine/kidney section, and cardiology section. Within the sections, there are medical chiefs, operationally responsible senior physicians, and ward managers who lead the development of the work.

Our mission is to provide internal medicine care for the residents in our catchment area, and we do this with great and dedicated commitment.

Furthermore, we see you as someone who builds a team around you and creates a forward-thinking spirit. We will place significant emphasis on personal suitability.
