… and discover the scenic state that is legendary for its hospitality and warm, friendly people.  Wherever you travel in the state, from the Hill Country to the Coast, from the Delta to the Heartland, a genuine southern “welcome” greets you at every corner.  Mississippi’s diverse landscape is only one example of the diversity that you’ll find within its borders.  It is home to excellence in the arts, technology, commercial ventures, healthcare advances, and a commitment to educational achievement.   It is home to a broad range of enterprises including casinos, ship-building, service industries, agriculture, commercial fishing, and manufacturing such as the recently opened Nissan plant.    Mississippi has produced a diverse multitude of prominent talent including William Faulkner, Eudora Welty, Leontyne Price, John Grisham, B. B. King, Walter Anderson, Faith Hill and Morgan Freeman, just to name a few.  It is home to a wide array of music, artisans, museums, art galleries, theatres, and every type of delightful cuisine imaginable.  And, it is home to celebrations of its numerous ethnic backgrounds and cultures with festivals and special events all year round.  Whether you prefer country or city living; golfing on championship courses or sail boating on Jackson’s 33,000 acre reservoir; attending the International Ballet Competition held in Jackson or wandering through a museum or historical site; Mississippi truly has something for everyone.  Majestic trees, fresh air, short commutes, and a lower cost of living can all be found in this lush, beautiful state where everyone is considered a neighbor and hospitality is a lifestyle.

You and your family can choose this pleasant way of life in Mississippi, while you enjoy a rewarding career working with medical professionals considered leaders in their field.  The Division of Dermatology, Department of Otolaryngology and Communicative Sciences, of the University of Mississippi Medical Center had openings for full or part-time dermatologists.  As a member of our University of Mississippi Health Care team, you’ll provide outpatient dermatology services in an attractive, state-of-the-art office setting, enjoy flexible hours with no call, as well as a very competitive financial package.

The University of Mississippi Medical Center, located on an attractive 168 acre campus in the heart of Jackson, is the health sciences campus of the University of Mississippi (Ole Miss).  For the past 50 years, this dynamic institution has trained healthcare professionals, contributed to medical science through groundbreaking research including many “firsts”, and met the healthcare needs of Mississippians with its 722-bed teaching hospital.  The Medical Center continues to make a difference in the lives of so many through such distinctive services as providing the state’s only Level 1 trauma care; being the home of the only children’s hospital in the state providing comprehensive tertiary care; and offering the state’s only bone marrow/organ transplant program.
