Physician Opportunity Brief Vascular Medicine / Vein-Focused Procedural PhysicianHigh-Volume Outpatient Vascular & Venous Disease Platform | Puerto Rico

Opportunity Overview

Centro de Venas del Caribe is seeking a vascular medicine / vein-focused procedural physician to join an established and growing outpatient vascular and venous disease practice in Puerto Rico.

The ideal candidate is a vascular medicine board-certified physician, preferably with prior training in internal medicine or cardiology, who is interested in a high-volume ambulatory practice focused on:

-Vascular medicine
-Venous disease evaluation
-Duplex-guided treatment planning
-Risk-factor management
-Office-based venous procedures
-A general surgeon seeking a transition into a lifestyle-oriented outpatient procedural practice may also be considered, provided the candidate is highly motivated to train in vascular medicine, venous disease management, and office-based vein procedures.

This is not a startup role. The patient flow, vascular laboratory infrastructure, administrative systems, and operational teams are already in place.
