Job Description:
Job Description UK King's Daughters is a 455-bed regional
referral center in Ashland, Kentucky. We are part of the University
of Kentucky healthcare system. We operate more than 40 primary care
clinics in outlying areas of Kentucky and Ohio which refer patients
from a service area of 750,000 people to our main campus for
testing and treatment. In 2025, we completed a $150 million
construction project on campus, which includes a new main entrance,
a brand-new ER, and an all-new Imaging Department. We have an
opening for a Pulmonary/Critical Care physician who will do a mix
of critical care, as well as inpatient and outpatient pulmonology.
We offer a guaranteed salary of $500,000, plus a $75,000 signing
bonus and student loan repayment of $20,000 per year. The physician
will also earn excellent benefits, including health, vision, dental
and life insurance, long-term disability, and 401k/403b retirement
plans. Additionally, the physician will receive six weeks of
vacation annually plus one additional week for CME and $5,000 for
CME expenses. Ashland, KY is a town of about 25,000 people, located
along the Ohio River. We have a nice, clean town with minimal
traffic, a beautiful and very active performing arts theater, an
indoor tennis center, a large downtown park, and boutique shopping.
Our Tri-State region (Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia) is renowned
for safe, family-friendly communities with an excellent cost of
living. Our region also has some of the country's finest state
parks that feature golf, skiing, boating, fishing, hunting and
biking. We have four seasons, all of which are relatively mild. We
are also a short drive to metro cities in Ohio (Cincinnati and
Columbus) and Kentucky (Lexington and Louisville). And we are
located about 20 minutes from Huntington, WV, a town about twice
the size of Ashland and the home of Marshall University.
Additionally, about two hours away in West Virginia, there is
excellent snow skiing and the New River Gorge National Park, which
offers multiple outdoor activities such as whitewater rafting, rock
climbing, and hiking.
